Not a great week. On Tuesday night I ran 9 miles and walked another .5 as a cooldown. I had to stop at mile six and go pee (a couple drops, but as I was running it really felt like I had to go!). I didn't feel real peppy for any of the run, but I did complete it.

Got my period on Wednesday and felt horrendous the rest of the week - "hot flashes" (start sweating buckets for no apparent reason), stomach cramps, diarrhea . . .

So, I skipped my Thursday night run as well as my Saturday morning ride this morning. I am going to attempt a ride tomorrow morning and see if I can't get back on track this next week.

I am way behind on my fundraising goal and I'm afraid I'm going to be dropped from the team.

Just feeling discouraged all the way around this week.
