Sick Sucks
There are some things we can control and others that smack you upside the head while you’re not looking. I consider myself a very regimented person. I do the same routines every day – from timing my breakfast perfectly to my boyz alarm going off to laying down to bed the exact same way everyday.
I’ve been battling a cold all week along with some long hours at work. This has obviously thrown some kinks into my running routine. It literally eats away at me from the inside. I’ve missed 2 running days already and if my “hack” doesn’t clear up by tomorrow – a third will follow.
It’s not just the routine that bothers me, it’s something else. It almost feels like your cheating or lying to someone you care about. You know in the end, it’s all about the miles. You can’t fake it when you toe the line – ready to take on 5, 13 or 26 miles. That’s my biggest internal worry when I have to miss days.
Off to go take some more drugs and get some sleep. Here’s to happy dreams and seven miles tomorrow!!!

Can you believe it…I still have a hack. Funny thing is though, it doesn’t happen when I run.
