Orienteering warm up/down (Grass, paved) 27:00 [2] * 2.5 mi (10:48 / mi)
10c (sick) shoes: R-Heavy Winter Running Shoes
Pretty congested last night (no sore throat any more) but Sudafed this morning seemed to help. So I ran w/Vadim, aiming for ~45 minutes, but looping nearby home in case I felt bad, at 32 deg., sunny, and little wind. Not too bad. Clearing out congestion (as expected), but started feeling crappy. At about 25 minutes I felt a little nauseous, so I jogged home and quit. Vadim bailed too as he's got a sore throat too.
After I finished, I felt pretty bad, didn't feel like eating lunch, and hit a 100.2 fever. Not much, but feels crappy. I think this cold is winning and I need to take a day or two more totally off... Lots of people in the neighborhood, at work (in CA), and even on AttackPoint seem sick recently (Boris in NY, Sandra in Switzerland, Karen in Sweden - quite a global cold epidemic - good thing it's not too strong.) Anyway I started a thread on the Discussion board to see what people think of running while slightly sick.

Running warm up/down 10:00 [2] 1.0 mi (10:00 / mi) +30m 9:09 / mi
(sick) shoes: R-Reebok White/Gray/Red
Yesterday was a day off not running, due to sore throat and congestion.
Today, my sore throat is better, but I'm still congested (taking a little Sudafed). Angelica, who's getting better tried 10 minutes on the treadmill and so did I. Felt fine.

Running warm up/down (Grass) 53:44 [2] 5.2 mi (10:20 / mi)
(sick) shoes: R-Heavy Winter Running Shoes
Moderate sore throat, but no fever, so I dressed extra warm and ran not too hard. Run felt okay, but sore throat didn't get better. (Not that it would have even if I didn't run.) Still, I'm no longer planning to run 2 hours on 2/17. Now (2/17, 4:30pm) I think I'll go check if I have a fever. If not, maybe I'll run 20 minutes and stretch... Somehow I think that's better than nothing, and I don't think I'm quite sick enough for it to hurt. (See comments on Boris's log...)
As for my foot/ankle, it was totally fine despite the nearly hour of running on grass. Very happy about that after the severe limp on the night and morning of Sunday/Monday.

Running warm up/down (Paved, grass) 29:57 [2] 3.15 mi (9:31 / mi)
shoes: R-Heavy Winter Running Shoes
Right foot was still a little sore, but not bad. I'll aim for ~60 on trails tomorrow, and 2 hours on Thursday. If that all works I should be up for the 5 mile race on Saturday morning, and back to a normal schedule after that.
However, what was a touch of a sore throat this morning is getting more sore, and the family was pretty darn sick. Hopefully I can resist.

Strength (Hip & Ankle) 5:00 [1]
Light. Stretching my right achilles with my knee bent is a little sore still, as are certain directions of movement of the ankle.

Running warm up/down (Paved, a little grass.) 11:00 [2] 1.22 mi (9:01 / mi)
(injured) shoes: R-Heavy Winter Running Shoes
Apparently I did tweak my Right ankle and hamstring a bit in the fall yesterday. Yesterday evening my right inside ankle near the achilles was a little sore. But then, while walking around in the middle of the night (up & down stairs twice to get meds for the kids & Angelica - everybody but me has the flu) the pain in my ankle was really bad. I took 600mg IB, and it still took 15 minutes to fall asleep. In the morning it was still bad, but it warmed up enough during the day, that I decided to try a short run in the afternoon. Ankle wasn't great, and after the run, I noticed my Right outside hamstring was a little tweaked. (It was my Right foot that slipped, with knee just slightly hyperextending at the beginning of my fall yesterday.)
Still okay this evening. Took 400mg IB after the run to help ensure it doesn't flare up. It seems okay... With luck, I'll just do easy tomorrow, and back to a my regular program with a long run on Thursday.
