Rough running this evening.  The day was beautiful but my body is not.  I either have a bug or allergies are kicking my butt.  I can't breath very good, my throat is very itchy, my nose is seized, and my lungs are full of those little musinex boys.  I felt ok during the 3 mile run from my house to the track and I even felt ok while running miles 3 through 9 on the track, but the 3 mile run home kicked my butt.  I was coughing and my muscles started to really burn.  My pace dropped from 7.40's to around 8.40's on the way home.  My pace at the end of 12 was right at 8 minute average.  Not too bad for the way I felt but I think I may hurt tomorrow.

Oh yeah, and I hit over 500 miles for 2010 tonight.  That makes me happy :)

KP,

Thanks for helping me look at the positive side of allergies. It's easier now I'm home and not running through the fields breathing in all the pollen.
