Working on getting enough sleep right now seems just as important as running.  The congestion just seems to linger.  The mucus busting medicine I'm taking works to help, but it's always still lingering in the background.

3 mile run.  My garmin was dead...so it was re-charging today while I ran.  My outdoor thermostat said 55o.  I'm not sure what the official temp was, but it was nice enough for shorts and a jacket.  The wind was blowing a lot, but it was a nice run morning.

Bleachers after school tonight.  I was wishing I'd brought my workout gear to work yesterday.  After school, it was 70o outside.  The rain had stopped, and other than being humid, it was just perfect weather.  It was still in the 60-70's  when the kids went out Christmas Caroling with their church group last night.  The weather is changing though, because tomorrow morning is supposed to be 25o

I'm glad I've got other plans tomorrow morning.  I'll be setting up the cultural hall for our ward x-mas party tomorrow morning at 5:30 am.  I'm thinking I'll pass on running before that.  I'll get some strength training hauling those tables around!

2.1 miles on the track/bleachers after school.

Yes, I think sleep is more important than running for you right now.

I can't believe your warm weather. You are lucky.

I hope you're not the only one setting up at 5:30.

I am grateful for the nice weather. Especially after seeing the snow mess that's going on everywhere else in the country.

I should have one other adult and my middle-school daughter helping me in the am. I'm going to try and bribe the seminary kids to help me for the last few minutes of seminary too. I'm thinking donuts or something sweet should do the trick!

I'll help for a doughnut! :)

Hope the weather doesn't get too bad! What are your plans for Saturday's run?

Hope that chest congestion gets out of your way quickly! I HATE it when things linger and linger and you feel like crap day after day. It is NO fun at all.
