DOWN BUT NOT OUT.

This past week and a half has been a very trying one for me. For the first time in as long as I can remember I have been sick. And an undidentifyable sick that has had me very concerned...to the point I even visitied a doctor. Yes folks, a doctor. It started about 10 days ago. Very sore and achy, headaches, chills, high fever. And it didn't go away. I was really worried as this NEVER happens to me.

The verdict, a pinched nerve in my back/neck causing the headaches and a viral infection causing the fever and chills. Don't know how it came to be, but has forced an unwanted midseason break from training.

The good news, although my headach still comes and goes I am back training. Yesterday I did a 1 hour bike followed by a 30 minute run. Today I need to get in a swim and am hoping to do a long bike this weekend.

We are also going to the beach this weekend, so that should allow me somr R & R.
