I have a cold -- it's not anything big so far. I only "feel" the cold in late afternoon and early morning and even that isn't horrible. Sometimes a cold can be a slow burn at first though. Fingers crossed.
I hiked last night. It was humid and I wasn't at my best, but I kept up. We had to cut the hike short by a mile because storms moved in and I got home just before the downpour started. Hubby drove to the trailhead to pick me up.
At first I was disappointed that I was so tired on the hike (i.e. it felt way harder than usual), but I remembered this was the 4th solid workout in as many days, my hormones (aka sleep) is crap, it was humid as hell, and I have a cold. Probably not the best circumstances to feel energized.
I'm up early for another "hike" this morning at a new-to-me trail. It usually posts as a run -- it's a fitness loop in the woods. Very little elevation and wide, groomed paths -- more like a walk along the river. I'm going to check it out for a run spot for me and Duke. I'm not even bringing my backpack or poles.
The hike leader suggested a brunch after at a restaurant up the street from my house. I'll see how everything plays out before I decide to join -- I don't want to get anyone sick eating inside, but there's a large patio so maybe. If I decide to bag the brunch with the group, I'll grab an early lunch at a place around the corner from me. I can sit outside. I'm probably being overly cautious about getting people sick, but no one needs a cold.
Hubby has a friend coming into town today until Sunday. Same friend as last time. The timing isn't great, but it is what it is. I leave for Asheville on Sunday (probably, maybe Monday).
Rest of today is chill -- letting my body recover from all-the-things. I have an early lunch and shopping with my aunt tomorrow. Looking forward to it. She NEVER cares if you have a cold so unless I'm super sloppy with snot, I'm planning to go.
That's all from here this morning. Hope you're having a good day. Later gators.
