I think MANY of you can join in with this rant for today.

What is up with everyone being sick? And then those sick people pass their germs to the healthy ones... making them sick.

Being sick by itself sucks. It sucks even more because it cuts into training time! I already had to take Feb 8th to Feb 12th off because of a cold.

And now today... my throat is sore and I feel drained. DANG IT! I can't get sick for a 2nd time in one month. Can I?

Here's how I see it... everyday I miss a training session is one step further away from doing an IM in 08. I can't keep missing weeks at a time. I have to get my running base up for my Olympic distance in May and I can't do that if I keep getting sick.

I am crossing my fingers and toes that I won't get a full on cold this time. I am going to try to run tonight as planned. If I need to miss a workout, then I can cut into my swim yardage without doing too much damage to my training.
