What did that mean for my run? Nothing, it didn't happen. I decided to live by the old rule...In the Chest, Let it Rest. I skipped it. Since I feel like complete dung, I am choose rest instead. I do not want to push it because I want to be healthy for the Get in Gear 5K on Saturday.
All was not lost though, I did do a 3 mile walk on my lunch hour.
Other tidbits....
After yesterday's visit to the Chiropractor I am pretty sore to the touch,however, my leg seems to be a lot less locked up. No bruises (yet) and I have been icing the area. I hope this helps. Thankfully it is not a huge problem that has benched me and I hope it keeps me on my feet.
My 3 Things Challenge is going really well.
1. No Candy.---none, nada, nunca!
2. Drink more water----At least 64oz/day
3. Less time surfing at night----Doing well on that avenue too. I guess it might be cheating since I have been in bed early all week.
My first 5K of the season is on Saturday. I am looking forward to it. We have a pretty big group of women from my office doing the race so it should be quite fun. The only thing missing is Sarge. She will be there in spirit. I miss her like crazy and I can't wait until she returns.
Taht is all I got tonight....Now, I have a date with Nyquil.

Great job on the challenge! Feel better soon!
I had the crud a while back and found cough drops help out if you do need to get a run in. Good luck!
When in doubt, leave it out. Feel better.
I hope you feel better soon. Sounds like your challenge is going well. Keep up the great work.
good luck on the 5k! I hope you feel better really soon!
Take care of yourself - hope you feel better soon! Good luck with the 5k this weekend.
I ran for the first time in 3 weeks. It kinda sucked. Of course I could have ran last week ..but I was still "healing".
Good luck on the first 5K!
Hope you feel better soon, and how are you sticking to that challenge? I need some guidance! Or are you using what some call "will power" or something like that?
Hope you get to feeling better. Seems like several people have been talking on their blog about being sick too. I think it must be going around. Good luck on the 5K, that is awesome.
Good luck with the 5K.....
Hope the "ickyness" is gone by then!
Rest, rest, rest!!!!
I'm right there with ya on the sickiness front. I've been fighting a cold since Thursday. It's been almost a week since I've run and it's killing me. I don't want to push it and string this thing out any longer than I have to. Best of luck feeling better!
I hope you are feeling rested and better today ;)
Feel better.
GL on your 5K
