Day 22

• 1.7 miles
• Slow
• 6am
• From/To Home
• First time I really considered discountining "The Streak"-- just feel like crap.   My Father was complaining of a sore throat and now I seem to have the same, head is still messed up as all I want to do is sleep, plus I've hocked up a half gallon of snot varying in color.   Knew the run wouldn't be that bad and it wasn't about not being able to complete it, but rather the thought that it really could be "The Streak" that is preventing me from getting over these various undesirable feelings of ill health.   Anyway, "The Streak" goes on....

Day 21

• 1.6 miles
• Slow
• 8:30pm
• From/To Home
• Very close to not doing this one -- absurd cold symptoms back, just feel like crap when I get home.   Seriously considering going to the doctor to have them draw blood.   Bec thinks maybe it's an ulcer?  Anyway, cool evening, easy run, knees feel tired...have though that perhaps "The Streak" is causing the health issues, at this point plan to run through it.   As always, we shall see...

Day 20

• 3 miles
• Slow
• 8:30am
• From/To home
• Felt a little better today, still feel sinus issues...debating going to the freakin doctor.  Taking today off from work as my folks are in town -- in even more exciting news, today is the relaunch of The McRib, Case and I will be going there for lunch.

Day 19

• 1.7 miles
• Slow
• 7:15am
• From/To Home
• Pushed Case in the Burley bike trailer.   Huge difference from the Maclaren, negligible difference from running with no stroller, which is nice.   Still have this stupid sinus thing, Motrine seems to help it, but I can't take that every day, want to wake up feeling good to see how that will affect my running.   Today was not difficult though, nothing hurt except my sinuses.   (Did feed Finn from 0130-0310...have to see how that affects me rest of the week)

Day 18

• 6.2 miles
• Slow
• 5:55am
• From/To Home
• The cold/sinus thing in still lingering -- giant and discusting snot coming out with every blow -- but not real bad, just makes me feel sluggish.   Went especially slow so this wasn't hard, but I still find myself looking forward to considering any run "easy."   18 is not my favorite number...three 6's is just not something I like, so here's hoping I survive until tomorrow to get past it.  

Day 17

• 5 miles
• 9 min/mi pace
• 6:25am
• From/To home
• Woke up a bit dehydrated resulting in this run being far more difficult than any slow 5 mile run should be...wasn't bad, but it wasn't as easy as it should have been.  Thought of 17 as I ran, Kip Winger played in my head and then I also recalled that the first girl I ever really "dated" was #17 on the SPX soccer team.  Anyway, "The Streak" goes on....

Day 16

• 1.7 miles
• Slow
• 6:30am
• From/To Home (around the block)
• Case was awake so I decided to take him with me, in the Maclaren stroller.   Maclaren strollers are not built for running, this was much more difficult than intened, but Case seemed to enjoy it.  "The Streak" goes on...
