Comments: Dawn observes the only thing running these past few days has been my nose. ;) Today I woke up after a day or two of shedding water and realized my weight was down to 77.0 kg (169.79 lbs). I haven't weight that since high school, I'd imagine. So there's some concern right now that I watch my weight and ensure it doesn't drop too low. Tonight though I go to a BMI calculator that says a BMI of 18.5 and below indicates one is underweight. To get to 18.5, I'd have to lose 30 lbs. x_x I can't even imagine myself at 142 lbs. So that removed some worry from my mind. Tonight I came to the conclusion that running at the gym doesn't compare to the outdoors. I haven't done my 23 mile run yet that I missed on Sunday due to illness. Right now I'm thinking of lining it up for Wednesday and taking Tuesday off. Happily I think I'm on the tail-end of this cold. I'm going to conservatively say I'll be healthy again by Friday, hopefully 100% by Wednesday but these things tend to have a long-tail sometimes.
