I will be honest, when I...Thank you so much, Susan. I will be honest, when I wake up, i don't always feel like waking up, but I also know sometimes a workout isn't going to make me feel WORSE. Does that make sense? But I could also be wrong. Today I lifted and I was in the zone when it happened... not sure 45 min of lifting will make me heal less quickly but it could be the case! I do just get mad. When I'm mad I'm like "well fuck you immune system, I'm gonna at least have 45 min of happiness!" Ugh. Sorry to go on and on. I should have just said you are right, because you most likely are. :) <3Meg Go Runhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11707890742715926971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-55884314483904267032018-09-06T19:16:19.327-04:002018-09-06T19:16:19.327-04:00Thanks Amy.

I fee...I am sorry you are not feeling good, Megan! I feel like you have had a lot of time fighting off colds this year and it's NOT FUN! Lack of sleep and staring back to school only adds to it, right? Just take care of yourself. Maybe your body just needs some rest. Like a week - 10 days of really scaled back activities! I know how much you love to run and workout but perhaps your body is asking for a bit of a respite. To get stronger and build back up! I am sending healing thoughts your way.

I hope you will feel better soon because I know you've been sick a while, and it has to be hard to do your job with all the kids and go about life when you're not feeling well.

Will that help me get better this weekend and then feel and do better at my job next week?" If the answer is yes I would skip the race. But if you're somehow feeling better and the answer is no then go run! Adam and I bought tickets to two events this year that we ended up skipping out on even though we couldn't get refunds because we felt it was "worth it" to skip!

Perhaps some of your illness is coming from being in your school building. The air flow, humidity, and all that crud. Our building is very humid right now and not at all what I was use to in the co.fort of my own house this summer. Maybe thT has something to do with it.Fairytales and Fitnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11771224209536216240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6003023702428993428.post-35440213515000999362018-09-06T06:38:03.941-04:002018-09-06T06:38:03.941-04:00I just wanna say, I have the back-to-school-crud, ...I just wanna say, I have the back-to-school-crud, too, and I'm angry and hurting for those separated families, and I've had to comfort my share of teary kindergarteners fo the last few weeks, so I get it. All of it. You'll feel better, and maybe even feel great by this weekend for your race. Kids will adjust to school. <br /><br />I wish I had as much confidence in the reunification of these poor families, but all I can hope is that we start to see some major changes and progress on that front after November 6.Ali K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15736472530374069410noreply@blogger.com
