Sick of Being Sick

Talk about perfect timing. I had fever a few days ago and I’ve been coughing endlessly (and loudly) all week. With the nebulizer in my mouth last night, I easily computed the amount of hours I worked out all week: ZERO.

To think I was overly thrilled about NYC Marathon Training starting this week.

To think Secondwind‘s Boy’s vs Girl’s Challenge kicked off last Monday, too. (This is a distance challenge initiated by Secondwind Running store where 10 girls, including myself, will win compete against 10 boys, for the longest distance run in a specific period of time. These poor boys don’t know what they are up against, I tell you.)

To think bestest running buddy, Annie, arrived from Singapore last Friday. Since last week, we had planned on running to our hearts content together. I’ve missed her terribly and I’m hoping we can cover our favorite course tomorrow, just as we always did before.

There’s only one B word to express my feelings right now: Bummed.

Okay, maybe another one: Bitin.

  1. i guess when things like this happen, the best you can do is look at it as a break and look at better days ahead :)

  2. Hi Jaymie! Smart of you to stop training while sick. May even help the running muscles rest and recover. Good luck on the NYC Marathon training. :)

  4. Hope you get better soon…I must be the one person who didn’t notice your coughs during the Dasma run!

  6. good thing it happened to you when you’re just starting the program. i’ve read somewhere, you have to aim for another goal if you miss training 3 weeks out before race day…or if you haven’t been training longer than 2 weeks.

    get well soon & goodluck!
