I felt well enough to try a run today, and decided the Hash House Harriers run in Portland might be good since the pace would be slow. However, it went longer than expected (~six miles) and I was feeling a bit run down about three miles into it. While some of this was due to getting over a nasty cold, I think it was also in part because I hadn't eaten much today. Not a smart combination to try a run in, but at least I did only have one beverage.
Like the HHH run I did last month, this was full of fun people, but I was just to run down to enjoy it all. I felt like a killjoy since I was so quiet and detached.
But enough depressing crap... hey, I got in six miles! I am getting over this cold, and will probably take a rest day tomorrow, but am REALLY looking forward to ramping the mileage back up. I'm just hoping the PF will cooperate, but I have a hunch that it will. There's a little race out in California this June that I plan on doing, so it's time to start getting down to business!
