Thanks Victor...

 Well it was bound to happen... I finally got Covid. After two and a half years of licking every door knob I could I finally got Covid after a fun weekend with friends in Charleston. 

What it feel like? I had a tension headache all day Monday and just felt run down. I crashed hard that evening and just felt drained. When I got up on Tuesday I felt even worse and Lainey told me that one of our friends had just tested positive so I took a nose swab and it immediately popped a POSITIVE. Crap.

Three days later the pressure let up in my head and surprisingly I felt much better but I still felt drained. I would fall asleep around 1:00pm and sleep late into the evening. I gave it a few extra days before I jumped back into training and everything felt great.

I hate that I lost two weeks, but I actually feel great almost rested now that I'm back into doing two a days on the road and the incline trainer. 105 Days left... time to get rolling!
