Track Thursdays

Today I went to the track and did some 400m repeats. I am gradually easing into this whole running fast around an oval deal. I hear it’s a good way to get fast though so I’m all on board! I met my friends Katie and Ryan and we started with an easy job around and then got to it. 8x400m with an average of 1:37. We had a few that were 1:40 and 1:42 but we got down as low as 1:33 and 1:34. Not positive what the true average was since I am sans Garmin but I guessed with the 1:37. Seemed semi in the middle. Yeah, it’s real scientific over here at GMR!

After we finished and started to stretch I got hit with the craziest sinus feeling. I kept sneezing as if I breathed something into my sinuses. It has been going on now for the past 3 hours. Not cool. I am completely miserable. I sometimes get this around the fall and this time of year. I guess it’s allergies but it usually happens after I am breathing pretty intense and I just can’t stop sneezing. Alan says that that is like the definition of allergies but I refuse to think that I have allergies. I like to think I just breathed something up into my nose. Some say it’s pollen I like to think that it’s something else. whatever.

To ease my annoyance with my current state I took some NyQuil and am hoping to pass out soon. So what if I took said NyQuil at 7:45. So what if it is 8:01 right now. Yeah, I got to bed early. SO WHAT! If this is a cold I hope to kick it ASAP. If it’s allergies, they better be gone in 10 days! I have 26.2 miles to run!
