Blurg

The knee is on the mend, thank goodness. If I can just keep myself healthy I'll be on the right track.

This year I can't seem to break the 12 mile training run barrier. I should have been running a lot farther by now, but with the bum knee which halted my running for a few weeks, and then with this past week's cold, I have been so frustrated! I've been functioning with the support of Sudafed, but that dehydrates you in a big way. Jeremy made me stop running today when he noticed I had goosebumps and it was in the mid-upper 80s. I was only 11 miles into a 16 miler. :( I needed to stop, and I'm glad he made me. The last time I felt like that and finished a run anyway, I couldn't keep anything down for 3 days and my temps stayed over 100.

On a brighter note, we enjoyed getting dressed up for Halloween last night. Jeremy was Tim(id) Simmons, Richard's introverted younger brother. I went as Sarah Palin. I'll post pictures as soon as I get them from other party-goers. I had the distinct honor of being awarded "Scariest Costume".
