Pace: 9:45

Conditions: 

  • 13 degrees

Observations:

  • I have been ill with something that has caused my lymph nodes to enlarge
  • My eating has been sporadic and next to nothing
  • I could really feel the effects of being sick and ill-nourished. The run was difficult. I was supposed to run 10 miles, but could only make it to the 8 mile point.
  • Tomorrow is a new day. Attempts will be made to eat today.
