Nothing since Boston. Not even cross training. I have been quite sick. I had very little soreness after the race (which was great) but have had zero energy and difficulty breathing. What started out with what I assumed to be allergies has turned into something quite ugly. Kept going back and forth on whether or not to try and force myself to exercise. Finally decided that I cannot risk getting more sick than I already am and that I need to use my energy wisely in order to get through these next couple of weeks. Still super happy that I ran Boston, just frustrated with my lungs/asthma/susceptibility to getting sick. I pride myself on being healthy so when something like this happens I have to remind myself that it's okay and that I can only control what I can control. Cheer up, Buttercup!! :-)

Sending healthy vibes your way. Now you know why you weren't quite as fast as normal in Boston. Get better soon and good luck with all the crazy stuff going on.

I trust you've made it through your sickness, graduation, job interview, house packing, house selling, moving, etc, etc, etc.....

Rhett and Fly,

Thanks for checking up on me. It is CRAZY how sick I got. In fact, I'm still fighting some of it. I think my body is just ridiculously tired and knows that it can finally take a big break! :)

Update on my status:

Yes, I graduated, took the boards, passed the boards, interviewed for a job, got offered that job, accepted that job, and am presently packing like a mad woman since we are loading the trucks tomorrow and moving on Thursday!! CRAZY CRAZY CRAZY!!! :-)
