Your biggest challenge isn't someone else. It's the ache in your lungs, and the burning in your legs, and the voice inside you that yells can't. But you don't listen. You just push harder. And then you hear the voice whisper can. And you discover that the person you thought you were is NO match for the one you really are.

Dear Body

I know you are exhausted. Nausea is just not very fun. And not being able to eat much is horrible too. But we have to seriously discuss this. . .

We have a race scheduled in two weeks. Is it realistically possible? We haven't been able to run for a week. We have been spending all our time on the couch. I'm not sure that 36 hours in a moving vehicle is the best idea right now. How do we tell Konni? You know what, I think she will understand. I hope she understands. She better understand.

Body, can you cut me a break just for a bit? It would help me out a lot. I know you're under stress, but couldn't you just be tired? NO nausea. PLEASE. Consider it. I will continue to take care of you even if you don't change.

Feel better,
