Sick, sick, sick.  Tried to go out for a short run in Gainesville, this morning, and headed back.  Think I have a fever.

PM - 7 miles at lunchtime.  About 75-80% recovered from my cold.  Really nice day out.  Ran reasonably well - not too fast, though my HR thought so - Hot water wasn't working at the gym for showers.  Brrr.

AM - 3.5 miles this morning.  

PM - 5.5 miles after work on the golf course.  Plantar fasciitis / heel has been  really painful lately.  Still not feeling well either. Made for a less than stellar run.

PM - had plans to do a long run early this morning but storms changed my mind.  Tried late in the day to get some marathon paced miles in on the treadmill- the good news was my HR at MP was ideal for about 3 miles - the unfortunate news was the PF pain was quite sharp today - making me fear a that I could tear it - so I bagged the rest of the effort and did some indoor rowing.  Spent the next few hours reading about different diy remedies for PF.
