Slow Recovery

I think the cold I had last week set me back more than I thought. Tried to run 8 miles today -- and it was a gorgeous, sunny, 56 degrees -- but after being out of the game and probably from my short jog yesterday, I just didn't have it in me. I did a mostly walk/jog around the loop and that was it. Decided I can do my 8 miles next Monday (holiday). Will run the full loop this Tues & Thurs ams, and then the 5K race on Sunday, and then will do the 8 miles on Monday to catch up with the training plan!
