Comments: Penultimate off day 🐢 Working instead on relaxing and decompressing as much as possible. Ibuprofen, skipped coffee, hydration, etc. Seems to help--while I felt dizzy when I awoke, it seems...less than on Wednesday? Did Epley Maneuver exercises last night before bed and this morning. They sort of helped, but not completely. Definitely feel the room spinning when I turn left (and not really when turning right). This Reddit thread indicates it most likely represents an issue with the left ear. Some terms: cervicogenic (starts after neck movement), BPPV (Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo--disorder of the inner ear). Switching topics: I am feeling excited with less than 72 hours to go until the SF Marathon. The days keep ticking down one-by-one. All seems to happen so quickly. Friday: last maintenance run. Saturday: Off day; 5K & expo (morning). Sunday: Race. 👀 Normal day-to-day rhythm interrupted by necessity to organize, prepare, pack. It will feel "real" on Friday night, I think. 💜
Any irregular feelings, aches, pains, heart rate, and so forth?: Dizzy, bit tired
