  • 41.11 miles
  • 16.62 Mi/hr

Just me and my bike today. Felt good to be out and be able to breathe. Never really pushed hard, so very pleased with the ride. Did have a couple of run ins with dogs that aren't normally out, but as I got close to them, they seemed to be more afraid of me than I was of them. Thank goodness.

Run
  • 1h 00m

  • 10m 46s /Mi

Well, I got a run in. And with very little coughing. I did have to walk a little bit but I'm not sure if that was because I'm still recovering or because of the heat. It was 95. At least I'm heading in the right direction finally.

After taking 3 of the 5 prescription meds last night before bed (one is an inhaler and wasn't necessary and one they told me to wait until today to start because you have to take 6 pills the first day) I woke up this morning feeling better already.  I wasn't near as congested and I wasn't coughing.

I waited to hear from them on the tests and nothing in the morning, so at 2:15 I called.  She told me I was boring.  Chest x-ray was clear, nothing in the urine and all of my blood labs were normal.  So, this was probably allergies that turned into bronchitis and we finally got some meds to knock it out.  She did suggest that at some point I go to an allergy/asthma specialist and get tested to see exactly what I am allergic to.  I know I'm allergic to seasonal allergens (such as molds), but it is something I will probably do.  Maybe then I'll know how to prevent it from getting this far.

With all that being said, I WILL be running tonight.  It may not be fast, but it will happen.

Went back to the doctor today because the cough just won't go away. This time they took blood and urine and sent me to get a chest x-ray. I also have five prescription medications to take now. Hopefully this will work and I'll get some answers. Maybe next time they will listen the first time when I tell them how bad it is. Needless to say, I won't be getting on my bike tonight. Or running. Or swimming. No working out until I hear a yes or no on whether I have pneumonia or not.

Run

Brick run on the treadmill

Decided not to swim today. The cough just won't go away and I knew I wouldn't get much of a swim in. Not worth it to me to spend the drive time, etc for 20-30 minutes of a bad swim. I decided rest was better.

June 19

Run
  • 1h 00m
  • 5.63 miles
  • 10m 39s /Mi

Slow run if you can call it that. Had to stop and walk a few times through the cough. I'm so ready for this to be gone.

Sport
  • Yoga
  • 1h 00m

June 18

Swim
  • 31m 42s
  • 1500.00 yards
  • 02m 06s /100 yards

Wanted to get some kind of swim in but took it easy. Cough is still acting up, so no set plan tonight. Hit the split button every 50. Swam some 50s, 100s and 150s.
