Cough, cough

There's some kind of cold going around and I've got it. It just seems to linger and linger. My congestion and runny nose have come and gone; my body aches have come and gone; my energy is slowly coming back; but this cough...this annoying little cough just won't go.

I haven't run since Allerton. I painted my house the week following that race, got sick and haven't done squat since. I feel like a bum, but I don't want to try to get back into it too soon and sabotage my returning health.

On a positive note, this unscheduled break is helping my plantar fasciitis immensely. Hopefully, I'm healed.
