I haven't run since Monday. Monday and Tuesdays were supposed to be rest days, but on Wednesday I had a teachers' meeting and had to wake up super early (for me). So Wednesday's run became Thursday's run. Unfortunately, I think I caught a cold from one of my students. Kids are always getting sick and being a teacher, we're always getting sick from the students. Luckily, it's not a bad cold. I have a little cough and my throat is scratchy, but not sore. Also, my left knee was really sore yesterday night. Walking up steps actually hurt just a little bit. I probably shouldn't have gone for a run, but I woke up early and didn't know what else to do. I hate just being in bed. I had to move around and do something.
And the most surprising thing about today's run was I feel it was one of my best! I got faster each split! Even my "fastest" speed per split got faster in each split. I really can't believe it. That was something that I wasn't expecting. I thought I wouldn't have any energy to go faster. Just running was going to be good. But then, the energy spewed forth from my body and I was able to get faster and keep a good mindset throughout the run. I love those little surprises.
Now it is time to drink some hot lemon water with honey and hope that that will help me on the road to recovery. This cold needs to go now!
Follow my run!
