I streak!

Today I was supposed to do 16 km. LSD.  Well THAT didn't happen.  I had a terrible sleep. My cold kept creeping in and waking me up. Scratchy throat, itchy ears, congested sinus, you know the deal.  I don't even know the last time I had a cold... it has been that long and I am okay with it!
Anyways, I woke up finally around 7, and looked out side (it had been raining all night, no SNOW that they were predicting) and it had just a dusting of snow/rain and was raining.  By 730 I had had a coffee and was making the decision... to run or not to run.  16 km in the snow (it was now snowing) Would be fun... 16 km with a cold and possibly letting my immune system down for a bit could be terrible awful.  Then hubby called and said he would be late... 830... that gives me about 1 minute to drive to Running Room and go... The decision was made, I stay home.
I had a headache an hour later.  And went to get groceries (next to Running Room actually) and it was horrid out.  It was a good decision. It was wet icy pellet snow. Blech!

Sat around all day, ate moderately okay (that would be good right?)
Did not consume enough water (working on that now)
And generally spent the day doing nothing, while hoping the kids would magically be ready for school tomorrow.

5:45 the kids were down playing in the basement and I was debating.... do I go sludge a mile on Miller (yes that's my treadmill) or not.... it might make me feel better.... it might add steps to my stepless fitbit day...
So I did. :)

I suppose that makes today RunStreak Day 5.  Go me!

Tomorrow... the littles are at school. I get 2.5 hours of FREE TIME, and since I missed todays 16, if I am feeling better, I will try and do 10 or something.  Fingers crossed.

Moms have no time to be sick.
