My mileage is a bit artificially inflated this week - since I raced last Saturday, I took Sunday as my non-running day, and so ran on Monday. I also skipped Tuesday track and just ran easy miles.
Just one more hard week of training for Grandmas, and then I taper. I'm feeling pretty good right now. Well...except for what is either a bad case of allergies or a head cold that blew up on Sunday afternoon. I had assumed it was allergies since I noticed it after spending a lot of time outside. On the other hand, antihistamines aren't doing squat.
Whatever it is, I'm hoping it's a 24 hour thing.
Achoo.
