Like Aslan, Gandalf, and Jesus before me, I have been resurrected to continue with my tasks here in the mortal realm.
An easy tester run with Emily, but the breathing was nicht gut and I wasn't really feeling all that recovered. Bleh

I have been betrayed by my own immune system and am on death's door. Please send thoughts and prayers
With Emily along the canal for a bit, the same as last week. Really struggling to keep up with her though, might have myself a rest day tomorrow to kick this ligma.

Turned around as soon as I got back from the gym and went for an easy run, because I am a keen bean.
Frosty morning, but the sun was out and I was having a good time. Feeling quite sluggish, but to be expected, and was perking up a bit towards the end.

Braids XC
Making my annual cross country outing, couldn't miss it.
Wasn't feeling that warmed up, but shifted okay up the hill. Still got held up by feartys on the descent, but it's hard to avoid. Desperately tried to recover for the rest of the lap, then did it all again.
Suffering quite a bit at the end, but managed to out sprint someone to the line. Quite annoyed to then be told he was ahead, but never mind.
Almost the exact same time as 2017 and 2018, so nice to see I've not progressed anywhere since. Not fallen off a very low cliff yet either though

Accidentally chased a small girl for a block, saw a small boy peeing in the street, and nearly got run over by a car (unrelated to the previous occurrences)
Bit of weird one really, but other than that it was chill.
