Actually felt worse as the week went on, but the major turning point in the battle was when the doc examined me and was very confident that I had contracted Lyme. OK, we know what the issue is, and I'm starting to be treated for it.
Monday: 0
Regular rest day.
Tuesday:
5. Very achy at the Stonington Fun Runs. Struggled to keep up.
Wednesday:
8 miles.
Noon: 5 miles on Woody Hill trails
Evening: 3 miles at Westerly Fun Runs. 20:23?! Not good.
Thursday:
5 miles. Adams Farm, Walpole, MA. Fun running on twisty mountain-biking trails.
Friday:
4 miles on local roads. Chest tightness and body aches throughout the run. After this I went to see the doctor and got my presumed diagnosis of Lyme.
Saturday: 0
0 miles. Zero energy. My only running was vicarious running as I went up to Warwick to watch Matthew take home 3rd place with a new PR of 16:27. I actually enjoyed being on the sidelines and watching the race; the hard part was repeatedly being asked why I wasn't running the race.
Sunday:
8 miles! Ran at Barn Island with zero confidence and aches starting to subside.
Weekly Mileage Log:
0.0 miles.
