Still out of commission

Since I'm still hacking up Slimer from the Ghostbusters, I've been holding off on everything.  I shouldn't let it stop me from doing strength and stretching exercises, but it's so hard to get moving in the morning when all you do is cough until the medicine finally kicks in. 
Unfortunately, I haven't been paying attention to my diet recently and I'm sure it's way out of control.  I need to start tracking my food again.

Slack-tacular

The ice has finally disappeared.  I'm not sure if my foot is better yet because I wasn't going to run on ice.  Of course, I also have a major cold that has gotten into my lungs so not one I can run through. 

If I get through three miles on Tuesday, then I'll keep following the Hal Higdon Half Marathon training plan.  If it's the foot, then I'll hit the bike.  If it's the legs being too out of shape, then I'll backtrack into C25K.

Yup, still a slacker

Have not run in weeks.  I had everything set up to run today, but a screaming baby kept me up half the night and that 5:15 alarm was just too early.  Tomorrow, I run.  I don't care if I don't get any sleep tonight, I'm going to get back into the habit.  I'm going to pick a 10k by the end of the week so that I have a goal again.  I'm leaning toward one that's about an hour north on a college campus.  It's the only one I can find that's relatively close and in the time frame I want.  There's also a 5K significantly closer to home pitting the Cherokee County Sheriff's department against the Fire Department to see who can raise more for charity.  That one could be fun.
