Can I Not Catch a Break?

Can I not catch a break? I woke up in the middle of the night last night with my nose super stuffed up. First thing I thought was "Shit! I've got a 1/2 marathon on Friday night! I don't have time to be sick right now."

So, I got up and took some Sudafed hoping that it's allergies. The Sudafed worked, but then I got to work this morning and took some cold medicine. That worked too! What the hell? Is it a cold or is it allergies? I sure wish I knew.

I just hope that I'm feeling better by the time it's time to run my 1/2 marathon this Friday night.

I've Got a Cold & a Race Tomorrow

I'm quite nervous. I came down with a cold on Monday and I've got a triathlon this Saturday. At first I thought my cold was just allergies so I took an allergy pill, but nope, it's a full blown cold. I've been taking Zicam and cold medicine, and hopefully I'll feel better by Saturday.

I'm quite nervous because you're not supposed to exercise while you're sick because you should really use all your energy to get better, plus, if you exercise while you're sick, it can make you stay sick longer. So, I haven't worked out in 3 days. Ugh.

Hopefully tomorrow will go well.
