sick of being sick

Since November I have been fighting some kind of a bug. Everytime I get tired or overdue bang, I get hit again. All this week I have been down AGAIN. Achy, sore throat, sniffy, cough...ugh. Trying to drink alot of water and taking good for me supplements. I seem to be healing from my fall pretty good, my hand is still giving me some problems, and if I touch my forehead in the right places I can still find some tender spots.
Here's the exciting after photos of my fall I talked about on my last post.

Fairhaven, Taylor docks, oops and a fall

Today's run of 7 miles in Fairhaven and on to the Taylor docks was wonderful. It was so nice to run on the water trail again. Part of the span was closed for rennovation, but opened this week.




The very end of my run had a pretty good downhill and somehow I missplaced my step. I ended up falling face first onto a concrete sidewalk and to the emergency room with two good sized bumps on my forehead and a severely sprained hand. sent home with a hand brace and instructions to ice, ice, ice and keep my head elevated. Feeling better now with ibuprofen. Maybe I should start running with a helmet!!!
