I’ve been getting sick, and then actually sick, for the past week or so and that means I’ve only run twice in eight days. I was already coming off a running vacation following a 50k race and experiencing general laziness, so this hasn’t improved my mileage numbers at all.
I tend to start feeling guilty after not running for just a few days, but I’m determined to take this time off in stride. Guilt is a common feeling among runners who miss runs and I’ve read a few articles over the years from “experts” who say feeling guilt is BAD and means that you have some sort of ADDICTION or something else BAD. <shrug>
I’ll be running again in a few days and feel a lot better.
