Friday Ramblings

Looking forward to an awesome Mardi Gras 1/2 this Sunday. Not sure it will be streaming, but certainly will be following online. Good luck to all competitors racing - wish I could be there!

Still not 100%, definitely battling this cold which has started to rear its ugly head. Wednesday, opted for the comforts of the treadmill instead of the unsavory cold. Felt eh starting out, but got into a nice groove. Nothing spectacular to report, I survived. Total mileage: 5.25 miles - total time on was 43 minutes or so.

Yesterday, not feeling the best yet again. Went to my friend's place after work to battle his treadmill. Ran first mile pretty quick, but then the treadmill started acting funny and actually started to slow down a little. I couldn't increase the speed (wtf?!), so I countered its move by increasing the incline to 3 degrees. Did another mile, short cool down, went outside and did some hill repeats to finish off the workout. No point in pushing it too hard, when I am sick. Total mileage: ~3 miles - splits were: 6:34, 6:44 (w/3 degree incline).

Coughing up a lung today at work, blah. Kind of wanted to do an easy run just for mileage, but may just opt for sleep. Tomorrow, long run with Crystal and Mike, then headed to Peoria to celebrate Dad's 62nd birthday!
