I'm going to make this blog entry relatively short. After taking a rest day on Monday (well deserved after the 20 miler), I came down with a nasty illness that knocked me off of my sore feet. I've managed to drag my way through the week without missing a day of work, but haven't had the energy to go for a run. I'm starting to recover - my head is less congested and was finally blessed with a decent night of sleep - but I missed two speed sessions and am in no shape for a long run tomorrow. Ugh.
Right now, the plan is to adjust my schedule and delay my taper. If I can get my last long run in on Tuesday or Wednesday, I will still have ten or eleven days to cut back before the marathon. Considering I haven't exactly burned up the roads this week, my plan should be fine. I hope.
Until then, does anyone have any suggestions on how shake a nasty cough?
