Well.....it has been a personally eventful, exercise neglectful couple of weeks. I am disgusted and disappointed with myself and am feeling pretty lousy right now. I have been diagnosed with asthma, officially now. I took the Methocoline Challenge last Wednesday. Basically you breath into a tube for a few minutes and they measure your breathing. After that, they have you breath in the tube but continue give you higher and higher doses of methocoline to determine how you react when they are throwing you into bronchial spasms. I failed miserably. I was diagnosed with asthma. That test kicked my rear-end. I felt like I had been hit my a Mack truck by the time I had returned home. Basically, no long run on Wednesday. Thursday I was still recovering and had planned on running in the morning to catch up, but I felt like crud still, so I let it go. Friday, Ben was off work and we were running around like chickens with our heads cut off. Saturday is technically an off day but after a run-in with the emergency room and a sick baby, I said HELL NO to running Saturday AND Sunday.
Now, I have decided to run 4 days a week. I have added in a run day on Mondays because I am a slacker, but unfortunately, can't run on Wednesday because we are busy all day long with pre-vacation errands.
I am seriously hoping I can do something while I am on vacation because I am feeling pretty darn rotten anymore.
