Well, after a day and a half of planting my butt on the couch, I’m on the mend from this cold.\u00a0 I still blame my brother, and I told him I’m writing him out of the will.\u00a0 (Little does he know that all of my money has gone to triathlon gear anyway.)<\/p>\n

But this means that my training schedule took a pretty big hit.\u00a0 I didn’t do a ton last week while on the cruise, and while I got in a 6 mile run over the weekend, I haven’t done anything since.\u00a0 Clearly, getting healthy is priority number one, and attempting to do a hard workout isn’t going to get me anywhere.<\/p>\n

So I’m reworking my plan. I have a couple of options.\u00a0 I could just pick up the plan on whatever day I’m on when I feel better.\u00a0 I’m thinking I should take at least one more day of rest tonight and then think about working out tomorrow.\u00a0 I could just pick up the plan on Friday.<\/p>\n

Personally, I prefer to look at the missed workouts, figure out which one was the most important, and hit that one.\u00a0 This week, I missed a bike speed workout and a run speed workout.\u00a0 Both are pretty important.\u00a0 Right now, the plan is that if I’m feeling awesome tomorrow, I will do the run speed workout.\u00a0 If I’m still coughing but feel relatively okay, I’m going to do the bike speed workout (I cough less on the bike).<\/p>\n

Depending on how I feel tonight, I might even hop on the bike when I get home.\u00a0 But I’m not going to do a real workout.\u00a0 Just some very easy spinning to keep things loose.\u00a0 I get antsy after spending too much time laying around.\u00a0 But I don’t want to risk keeping this cold around longer than I have to.<\/p>\n

And now, off to buy stock in cough drops.<\/p>\n
