Going to have to reset
Posted on 03. Feb, 2007 by Brad in Training
Today I was supposed to be at Rocky Raccoon attempting my first 50-mile run. But instead, I sit at home. On Tuesday of this week I began to feel ill. By Wednesday, I had a very sore throat, was losing my voice, and could tell I was encountering a cold. Thursday and Friday were bad enough that I stayed in from work. After starting antibiotics and some high-powered cough medicine, I am now coming through it.
So now I’m mentally hitting the reset button and looking forward to training once I feel better. I will just aim to take it easy for a couple of weeks and see where I am at. If I feel good, I might consider running either the marathon or 50-mile at Grasslands. Then I can work in a couple of spring runs. Even though I’ve had a couple of setbacks here, I should still be able to get in fine shape before the FANS 24 hour on June 2.
