I ran out to Payson and back via canal road, it was a pretty nice morning and I was able to keep the pace up beat for the most part, I had a couple miles that were sub 8:15 minute miles in the middle of the run. I have been trying to fight back a cold the last day or so and I was feeling a little bit light headed and my muscles feel kind of wobbly, I really felt it on the elliptical. My average pace was 8:30 with my Hr average at 150, total time was 43:52 my Garmin has been acting up. After Saturday's run it was low on battery and so I went to charge it and it wouldn't charge and then it wouldn't turn on until I re-set it and then it almost died on me today, so I don't know what to think;-( I did 30 minutes on the elliptical, 10 minute warm-up and then I did the contenders course which is a 20 minute workout and resistance up to 5, it kicks my butt pretty much. I finished up with my upper body workout 30 minutes and then some push-ups. I hope I can stave off this cold and not let it over take me, I don not want to get sick at this point...

 

See ya tomorrow.

I'm still feeling like crud, so this will be another day off! Oh well this was suppose to be a cut back week anyway, so the drop off will be a little more than planned. Hopefully by the end of the week I can get some runs in but who knows, that will depend on how I am feeling.

See ya tomorrow.

I'm still feeling like crapola! The way things are looking I might be out the rest of the week, but I'm holding out hope that I will feel better by the weekend so I can get in a run, I'm okay if I can't run anymore this week. I would hate to have it turn into something worse and I can handle having a cold cause I know it will get better soon as apposed to a running injury that takes forever to heal;-)

See ya tomorrow.

I picked up a fever last night and I am on no sleep, a very rough night! I am feeling a little better right now as I write this and my fever has broke, I hope,  but needless to say no running today, I am hoping that I can get back to it on Monday.

See ya Monday.
