Last Wednesday a fever took over this body and shut me down. Sleep and drugs is all I wanted...oh and a really big heating pad. I was freezing - layers upon layers and I could not get warm.
I didn't even attempt CrossFit. THAT would have killed me. I was off work on Thursday and Friday - I only booked 2 sick days when I had a stroke 4.5 years ago. So - 2 days in a row from work - I knew I was sick.
Friday I got my butt to the doctor who confimed my lungs were really congested. Really!?!?!? She felt it was viral and gave me 2 different puffers. If I don't have relief by Monday I can call her and she will prescribe something else but now it is a waiting game. They took x-rays of my chest to see if I do have pneumonia or not. Sure feels like something is going on in those lungs.
I missed my 24K run this weekend and the 8K Robbie Burns' Race. It was a race I wanted to do because I know I have improved so much in my running since last year. But - it wasn't going to happen.
So now I am tired and cranky but trying to rest.
Maybe I will go and lift some weights but not with cardio - just try some strength training. I have to do something.....
okay - I will wait until I hear from the Doc and if no news by noon - I will call Jason at CrossFit and see if he can come up with something for me.
That will get me through tomorrow.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.....
