So yesterday was painful.
I ended up sleeping almost the entire day, and did not technically get out of bed until about 4 pm. At that time, I got up and managed to make some use of the day by cleaning the house, doing the laundry and helping with dinner, but by 7, I was exhausted again and was back in bed. (I do recall at the gathering that I boasted I had not been sick from drinking since my bachelorette party -- a year ago -- so the lesson? Never make a declaration like that while guzzling down two bottles of red wine.)
The most disappointing thing about yesterday's illness was that I missed my run; I was so dehydrated and sick that I didn't feel up to any kind of physical exertion. So last week tops the training so far for bad runner status, and that means that this week I have to get my shit together and stick to this week's schedule.
On a side note, I am struggling through a PowerBar that is absolutely disgusting. I keep trying to nibble at it, but I think I'm going to pitch it -- yuck!

Ah Jess, you will be back in the training mode this week. I didn't get sick but had a headache until about 11am yesterday. After that I moved in slow motion. Just think, you have a Halloween party next Saturday, maybe you should schedule your long run for that morning rather than Sunday-you know you will have an excuse otherwise :-)
Ugh, you gotta love those 24 hour hangovers :-( I hope you manage to get back on track this week.
yeah thats pretty much why i quit drinking.
i did have ONE beer on Saturday and if you knew me a year ago, you wouldnt believe that.
and i really didnt even want that, but i felt peer pressure. at my age!!
Hopefully you are feeling better now! As to the powerbar....I can't seem to find one that I like...AT ALL! YUCKS.. Good luck with the running this week!
