Flu and Marathon Training

Well you might have guess it. I got the flu and only 2 days before my 10th marathon. I had to take the day off from work -- just sleeping, drinking water and doing just about nothing. I had expected to run today, but I am a little weak to do that. I had a great run on Monday, so I am fairly confident of my ability. But the flu has beaten me down a bit. I am hopeful that tomorrow I can still get some rest at work and be fresh for Saturday and my final prep for running. I am little concerned about my congestion, but alas I have been through worse in my bounder running times. Just keeping my fingers crossed on some good recovery.
