Today, I started to feel like I was getting a cold at work. Felt really funny, took three aspirins and I felt really good. I like to run on Tuesday nights, so I was not sure if I should. I felt fine and got out and ran. My lungs are really tight from riding in last Saturday’s AV Fall Century, but my legs felt really good. The run felt good, but I want to stop with every step due to my breathing. My lungs were feeling so hurt by the cold air (54 degrees). I should have worn more clothing or something. I am really coughing a lot as I type this.

I ran the 5K in 28:55! This is the first time ever that I broke into the 28 minute mark. My best 5K was last December in the Jingle Bell Jog at 29:08.
