After my last post, I was gearing up to train full-force. I had just finished my second session with the trainer at the gym and was both sore and excited. Then, I got the flu. My mother and doctors have been trying to convince me to get the flu shot since I was seven (as an asthmatic, I'm considered high risk), but I have stubbornly resisted. In fact, I was proud of stubbornly resisting! What do they know, anyway? HA! The flu hit me upside the head on Saturday. Fever, chills, achey, the whole nine yards. I slept all day Sunday and then spent a few more days slowly getting better (with the help of Tamiflu). I'm on the upswing now, and I'm still not sure I will get the flu shot next year... (Sorry, Mom!)
Normally, I try to stay pretty positive, but this week I feel like I lost time. When I finally emerged from my bed yesterday afternoon, I realized how much there still is to do. With 24% of my fundraising completed and only a little over three months left, I have a long way to go. Not to mention training! With all this snow, even when I get my bike I can't bike outside just yet. But it's ok! I've almost recovered from illness and I'll be able to get back to the gym, and then it will be spring and I can bike outside. It's all going to be fine. Woosah.
