I woke at 4 am yesterday feeling ill and then spent the rest of the morning running from the bedroom to the bathroom. Why I was sick I don’t know. I do know that my bathroom has new bath mats today since a puked all over my old ones. I spent the day laying either on the couch or in bed. I think I ate a total of a couple bowls of soup and a bunch of crackers. Not exactly the ‘carb loading’ I was thinking about this week.
I stayed home from work today and I’m feeling much better. I’m eating food regularly now and getting my energy back.
I work with critically ill patients and I find it hard to imagine what it feels like to be that sick. I don’t get sick often so when I do I’m miserable when I’m sick and do anything I can to overcome it. It is probably good for me though, as a slight reminder of what my patients might be going through.
The forecast for race day still sucks.
