uh oh

T-minus 5 days until Tri-Raider and I am starting to feel like I might actually be coming down with something - I have the scratchy throat, the headache, etc.

The kiddos have been off-and-on sick for a week or so, the usual drill: snotty noses, mild fever, etc. While these are minor symptoms to a four year old, they are often nearly deadly to an adult. It's just not fair.

It was probably the bike ride yesterday that dragged me down into the dirt.

So I have a whole week to GET OVER IT, moderate training, tapering, fluids, EmergenC and all that...wish me luck.

SLOW DOWN! Reading this, I get the impression all you ever do is run here, run there, swim here, swim there. Doncha people ever do anything but run all over New Mesco? Go see a movie, ferchrassake! Have some chocolate!

Me, too! I started having an achy ear and throat yesterday. Doc says it must be a virus, because he can't see anything. No fever yet, knock on wood. Rest, rest, rest. Take a day off! and hey, have lunch with an Athena! (We know how to eat)

Hope you feel better! BTW, I was in the never say never Rugby catagory until I went to a practice with the NM Brujos after six years out of the sport and I spent the next three days at home eating percocet. I thought, "I've got to find a different sport..and I did"
