So the Cooper River run is a 10k. And that's what the latest running group would be focusing on. Timed runs due to the early darkness that time of year. speed work Wednesdays - which didn't happen all that much for me. Not sure what happened with those days. I think there were some work meetings. And I am pretty sure there was weather. And long run Saturdays. Again I think the weather creeped in there a bit.
In order to prep for race day - the running group always does another race during the training. You know to deal with the logistics and nerves that happen on race day. This time was a 4 mile race on some of the local trails. The nice thing about this race - it was pretty convenient to my home. Relatively speaking.
Again, it turned out to be a good pace run for me. The first mile under 12 minutes AGAIN. Yay me. The hills on this course weren't that kind. Oh well. Neither were the frigid temperatures and - wait was that a snow flake? But it was a good time..
Well that is until I woke up sick on Monday morning. I am sure it was a combination of the weather and other things. It pretty much took me down for the count for a few weeks. Sore throat. Bronchitis. Head cold. Hacking up who knows what.
So the focus was diverted in February.
