10 miles and it sucked. I don't feel good. It was hard to run each step.

Sick with the flu. This explains why my runs the past few days have been so crappy. Not the best timing to get sick but I'll take it over getting sick the week of the race. I hope I recover quickly.

8 miles. Feeling better but still not completely better. I'm still congested and my body feels tired from fighting off the flu. My run was really slow.

7 miles around Wheeeeeler Farm. My stomach is still recoving from the plague I had on Tuesday. But overall, feeling better.

The plan was to run between 10-15 miles easy. My coach said that I don't want to push my body back into training after being so sick. But to my surprise, I felt really good today so I ran the full 15. I still got my usual side ache around mile 13 because I'm still coughing all the crap out of my lungs so air flow is somewhat restricted. But I'm feeling more hopeful about my recovery. Next week should be a hard week with high mileage and some good speedwork. Here's to hoping that SG isn't a complete bust! 7:24 AP
