Ugh. You know that song from the old Disney cartoon Alice in Wonderland? "I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it..." That's totally me. I was just telling Anne yesterday that we all have bad runs and today was my turn. I probably should have stayed in and fought off the rest of my cold but it's SO GORGEOUS outside and I hear it's going to get cold this weekend so I didn't want to miss out on 60 degree weather. I had 8 miles planned for today, figured I'd try for at least 6 due to the head cold and ended up barely getting 4 in and then walking the rest of the way home. Heavy legs, congestion, stomachache (thanks to cookies and coffee I had right before going out- ooops!) I know, I know. "Listen to your body!" I think I may have to let go of the idea of 40 miles this week. I've still got my 17 on Saturday but I won't cry if I don't get more miles tomorrow.
