Courtesy of some kind of stomach bug.
The child decided to bring a bug from school, and of course, he only got sick for half a day. Next up was Ivette, my turn came 12 hours later right as I was getting ready to take off for my early Saturday morning run. That run lasted maybe 20 yards and I already knew that I was in trouble.
Turned around and went back home and to bed. I spent the next 2 and a half days in bed, and it wasn't until today that I actually was able to run. What's funny is that I did not lose any of the pace gains of the past two weeks, what I DID lose was the weather conditioning and our averages dropped at least 10°F.
Looking at my weeklies, I was expecting that this was my worst week over the last two years, but this is the third time this year that I drop into mid-50 miles in a week, compared with four mid-50s weeks for all of 2017.
