Sick Day

At least once a training cycle, IT happens. What is IT, you ask? IT is the cold or flu that my kids give me just as my training is starting to get into a rhythm. I mean, how many times can you wipe a runny nose, and avoid getting the cold yourself? And IT happened last night on the way to dinner at Islands. It started with some pain in the ears, then a tingling in the throat- and as of right now, that is where it has stopped- and hopefully will not progress any further. I took the day off from work, slept in and have been returning phone calls and emails from bed. I blew off my swim training this morning and hope to get to some light spinning or running tomorrow. We will see.
