Well, after my great 14 miler I have been sidelined with a sinus infection that gave me and my family a flu scare. I hope to run an easy 3 miles tomorrow at lunch time provided everything is clear.
It stinks to have to take time off when I know that every day missed is another day against my training. But I have also learned that sometimes its better to rest when I am sick. In this case, I was not going to run with a fever.
With the 14 behind me, I will try a 6 mile run this weekend to get me back on my feet before going long again next weekend. If am back to 25-30 miles next week, then I should be fine for the half marathon. Then I can work on getting myself back up to goal pace.
You can only get out of running what you put into it. Take care to not let a temporary setback ruin your running goals. Take the necessary time off then get back on your feet as soon as possible.
