My husband thinks he is getting sick. I told him to go sit in another room and I may ride the six hours with my head hanging out the window of the car so I don't catch it!

I am in for a meet. I thought I read @Keels saying something about 4pm Thursday. Don't know who all was going. Things to do at home will keep me here until early Friday am. I will drive up then. Everyone I promise all not to wear the dress until Sunday's half

Where??

 

[sperkins921]

Worst night ever. Might not make the meet at 4 from sheer exhaustion; though the story is probably best had over drinks. Let's just say I had pixie dust until I landed in Orlando and leave it at that! Lol

 

[sperkins921]

Would anyone want these? I have 5 total, I think 3 orange and 2 strawberry kiwi. I got them in swag bags from previous races, tried one and wasn't a fan. But if anyone likes these... I will be at the expo tomorrow morning and could meet up there to give them to you. Just thought I'd take a chance and see.

I'd like to try them! I prefer more natural fuel- if there really is such a thing- currently use hammer nutrition supplements. I'm not sure what I'll be wearing yet; but hoping to be there early....

So sorry to hear you had a less than magical night. Hope its all good from here on out.
So, I got sick. Starting feeling cold/flu symptoms on Sunday. Rode it out on Monday and it hit me full blast Tuesday. Took Emergen C and Dayquil Tues and Wed and I woke up feeling human today. Happy it happened early in the week. Now to just pack and head out tomorrow.
Hope everyone at the expo is able to snag the goodies they are looking for today!

I hope that the EBay crowd does not grab all the good stuff. Looking to pick up stuff for my daughter. Hope some is still left tomorrow morning. Taking her there straight from the airport. She lands at 8:30

I saw this too late! I left my house about 20 min before you posted and didn't think to bring them just in case. I have no idea what my plan is for the weekend (friends coming into town have not informed what we're doing yet haha). We are only running the half, so maybe sometime Saturday?

So I woke up yesterday morning with a horse voice and a cough. Today it's not any better. I had a terrible run on Tuesday and I'm hoping my run is better today. My voice is almost totally gone today and I leave tomorrow, so if you here someone screeching at the Expo/during the runs its probably me Hoping for some pixie dust in the next day or so!

SKIP THE RUN!!! REST!!! Save you energy for the event...skipping a run today could be better then pushing it.

You think that would be best? I feel lethargic when I don't run, but since the run was so bad on Tuesday if I have another one like that its going to topple my spirits

 

[Kail]

Absolutely! You need the rest to help fight off what you're brewing. That being said, a nice walk in the fresh air can help and would be a nice compromise.
If you're congested at all, saline nasal rinse (netti pot, or something under pressure like hydrasense. The little squeeze bottles often don't produce enough pressure) would be very helpful, also clears out mucous instead of it dripping down the back of your throat which can provoke coughing!

I feel your pain. Woke up Tuesday morning with a sore throat, obviously picked up something from the clinic I worked Saturday

Saw a video on Facebook of the craziness for the princess jackets. Looks like those were gone in not time.
