Had some awful stomach issues this week, so Tuesday ran just 4 miles to make sure everything was ok. (It was, phew.) Thursday went back up to the normal distance, also with no issues. Am now on Prilosec that should hopefully let everything heal back up.

Big thick fog over DC this morning, coupled with a dead GPS watch made a run that felt a bit… shall we say… in the dark.

Well, I had PLANNED on running some more in the past week. But a nasty cold knocked me on my butt, and that was the end of that. Anyway, ran with the guys today and survived the experience. A little coughy/hacky now but not too bad all things considered. I think swimming is still right out, though.

Just realized I hadn’t included Monday’s treadmill run here. Anyway, I’d missed the weekend run due to a leg issue (I blame the three-hour Wolf of Wall Street), and ended up on my own for Monday. Decided it was pretty darn cold out (hello incoming polar vortex) and ran on the hated treadmill, instead.

Missed out entirely on Monday’s run, and my planned Wednesday Christmas run got scratched due to getting very little sleep the night before. (Long story.) Managed to squeeze in a treadmill run on Thursday in-between work and picking Charlie up at the airport, though.
