Mysti's Running: 06-27-2010 - 07-05-2010

We left for vacation Sun. June 27th and returned last night Sun. July4th.

Vacation and Running started off Wonderful !!

Mon. June 28th (At Hotel in Mobile, AL)
Warm Up: 5 minutes walking on treadmill
Workout: Ran 15 minutes
Distance: 1.34

Wed. June 30th (On Cruise Ship)
Warm Up: 5 minutes walking on treadmill
Workout: Ran 15 minutes
Distance: 1.47

It was a lot easier for me to run on the treadmill; So I actually ran the entire time verses walking/running!!


Vacation went wonderful through Thur. Night
HOWEVER
Here is where the vacation goes down hill. :(

I got very sick about 10:00pm Thur. night with what felt like food poisoning or the stomach bug, by midnight my fever was extremely high and I was violently shaking, visit to the medical center showed I had a 103 fever and provided meds and sent back to room, 8:00am on Friday morning no improvement, another visit to the medical center resulting in spending the remainder of my last day at sea in a hospital room hooked up to an IV, 4 bags of fluids later and numerous drugs I was discharged back to my room.

I started feeling better Friday night and Saturday morning; So we decided to go onto Navarre Beach, FL as planned; However, Saturday afternoon through the night I remained extremely sick (I will spare you the details !!) Needless to say, We cut the trip short and headed home.

Went to the doctor today. He stated I obtained a viral infection that simply has to run its course, but stated the within the next 12 hours I should begin to feel better.

Thankfully !! I am beginning to feel better !!
AND
Thankfully !! I was am to enjoy the main part of our vacation !!


In regards to running...
I have now missed three runs (Friday, Saturday and Monday)
AND
I hope to be able to run on Wed.

  1. Oh no! I'm glad you are feeling better. That sucks. Feel better soon! No use running while you are under the weather. I'm also glad that treadmill running went well for the few days you got to do it.
