Bad

I've been a bad blogger. I've been sick. Sorry. I've had this crud in my sinusus now for a week and I was hoping for a reprieve today, Monday, but alas...no such luck. Still not quite 95% - I got to doing some lawn work and got winded pretty quickly, so the prosopect of a swim or run is just not in the cards.

I'm a bit worried about the Marathon scheduled for this Sunday. I'm keeping in mind Iron Jenny's probable cause for her heart issues; ie, endourance event on the heels of, or actually during a sinus infection. Her head cold may have lead to a virus attacking her heart, and she's had issues ever since IM Switzerland becasue of it. I certaintly don't want to go down that road for a "C" race like this Marathon. If it ain't CdA, BTW, it ain't more than a "C".

So if it seems like I've been in hiding - not much comment love lately either, sorry to say - it's just temporary, due to the constant running of my nose, and not my legs.

As a teaser, Episode 3 of The Taconite Boy 'n Bigun Podcast is due to hit I-tunes soon....most likely tomorrow...entitled "The Sherpa Salute". Or "Metro-Sherpual" - but probably not the latter.

So this is a big week. Marathon decision. Mom coming on Friday - she's running the half marathon race the same day as the full for me. Still doing taxes. Still cutting lawns. Life goes on. Diana's really pretty sick too - as these things tend to be household affairs, so we may need to fumigate or quarantine the Bigun house!

Oh, and like a dumb-ass, I signed up for the 12 Hrs of Sebring scheduled for 6 days after the Marathon. 12 hrs on the bike. What was I thinking?
