WiW: Week 23

Weight: 147.8

Waist: 31
Hips: 38
Thigh: 23.5

The last week has been both awesome and horrible.

On Friday, I ran 4.5 miles in 45 minutes. That's the longest I've run, the farthest I've run, and one of my better paces. I give credit to cooler weather and the sprinklers. LOVE the sprinklers.

Saturday night, my throat started hurting. By Monday, my throat was improving, but the congestion was moving in. I did a short run, and it actually wasn't too bad.

Until Tuesday morning, when the congestion really set in. Today, I decided not to push it. I feel like ass, I'm stuffed to high heaven, and the coughing is just beginning. It's not worth making myself so miserable, but I hate missing a run, especially on a nice cool, wet night.

I'm really hoping I'm better enough by Friday to go out, both because it's supposed to be cool, and because I don't want to lose all the awesome I achieved last week.

I still can't believe it. Four-point-five miles, and I felt decent at the end. It's mind boggling.
