today came pretty close to being an unplanned rest day... i think the sleepless nights with stress and thoughts consuming my mind has caught up to me, and having Jay, Terron and my dad all sick hasn't helped. Last night I started getting a bit of the aches, and my throat and ear were starting to get sore. Ugh! Slept in this morning, did some errands, came home and laid down on the couch. I was comfortable, but even with 3 top layers and a blanket, I just couldn't warm up, I had goosebumps!
I got up, layered up even though it was quite pleasant today, and did my FFFK for Non-Runner Nancy. I had a hard time keeping my heart rate down today on a pretty hilly route, so it was a slower run, approx. 35 minutes. Considering how icky I felt, I'm happy I went out though as I had finally warmed up. Tomorrow morning we have 24k on the schedule, and I'm meeting up with my running group! I haven't run with them since sometime in November, so I'm excited to get some miles in with them again :) Hoping I feel well enough to get through it all, we'll see how it goes. Hope you're all having a great weekend!

Good job getting it done! Hope you feel better in the morning!
Are you sure you don't have a fever (aches and layering up and still having goosebumps)? If so, rest up!
I hope you feel well in the morning so you can run with the running group. :-)
Thanks for joining in the FFFK! Sounds like it wasn't great day for a run, but you ran anyway! Thanks! I know that it means a lot to Nancy.
Aw Mel, I hope you aren't coming down with something! Great job on getting out there for the FFFK though! Good luck on the 24K tomorrow.
Man the funky is running rampant out there right now! Way to get out there anyways. Sometimes, it's good to get it all flowing so you can 'get it out.'
