Recovery

I've recovered about 75% from my death bed and this horrendous cold, but I can't seem to get over the hump. I've got a lovely cough and my nose basically won't stop running. I stopped and bought Mucinex yesterday, hoping for a miracle in a box. It wasn't. I think I might have a sinus infection. Can I cure that myself? I need to google my ongoing symptoms and see what I'm dying from.

I have only run once in two weeks, so I thought it would be a good idea to get up early and go for a long run. I have to say, this wasn't the best idea I've ever had. Friday was the official start to summer, and the heat has already arrived in Dallas. It was hot, muggy, and my chest burned when I tried to take deep breaths. Oh yeah, and remember how I said earlier my nose won't stop running? I opted not to take any kleenex with me... It pretty much sucked. I did power through, at a very slow pace (slower than usual), and managed a respectable distance.

I'm hoping for a reasonable week at work and to try to get back in the habit of running. I've barely been able to get in 2 runs a week lately and I hate it. I miss running. I miss judging people at the gym. I miss racing the person on the treadmill next to me. I've got to get back into it, for my own sanity.
