    I was so sick today I couldn’t work. I woke up and worked for about an hour before it was too much. I called off. I ended up sleeping half the day. Every time I woke up, all I could think about was how I was going to get my run done.

    I don’t know what to say here other than I strapped up my shit and did it. It’s probably not good for me, it wasn’t fun, but I made this commitment and I’m going to see it through. I have a few days off work now. The plan is to rest properly and log my miles, heading back into work recovered.

    I woke up this morning, well, not so much woke up as never having slept sick as hell. I felt so bad that I thought about calling off work and sleeping all day. Then I thought about the project I volunteered for at work and my run. I also didn’t want to balk on my commitment to my teammates or my commitment to myself. So, I got up – made my early morning meeting and worked through to lunch.

    At lunch I set out to do three but after losing a minute and a half in mile two I stopped and walked two more. It’s already not a good idea to run while sick, so I thought it best to not push it with how bad I was feeling after two.

    Still, I did it. Those moments that feel the worst when you’re in it always feel the best when they’re over. Day 9 down.
