Wild Running Turnips

Running is my obsession and here is how running fits into my life. In a world where most think I am nuts (ok, its not just the running that makes them think that!) and would rather be on the couch I am eager to connect with other runners for support through all the trials, injuries, races, wierd food preferences that make a runner a runner. Enjoy!

anti-histamines SUCK!!!!

Due to allergies and a mild skin condition I am temporarily on anti-histamines. THEY SUCK. They make me so tired. I have not been able to get up early to run in a week, luckily daylight is long enough now that I can go in the afternoon but I actually enjoyed being up early! The anti-histamines are helping the allergies and what-not but I am not sure what's worse - itching and sneezing all the time or being sleepy all the time?
I had a 6mile TEMPO scheduled this morning but I couldn't get up again. It will have to wait until this afternoon which throws a kink in my other plans for the day. Nonetheless, I am determined to run. AND talk to the doctor about putting me on something else perhaps?
In other news - Whitie Ford (my less than bright kitty) got into such a mess the other night that I had to take pictures...as soon as I find my computer cord to the camera I will upload them so you can see for yourselves!

Get up and drink coffee or something that wakes you up!

I can't fit a regular schedule in the afternoon.

Take care!

Hope you feel better. I can relate to not being able to get up on time to run in the morning. I am a very light sleeper who sometimes experiences insominia, which occassionally blows my early wake-up call. So I have to change around my schedule to get in the afternoon/eve runs.

Thanks for visiting my blog. My wife's sister lives in North Kingstown, RI. We're going there for Easter.

my sympathies! i hate allergies. i take claritin, because it's non-drowsy, but it doesn't help *nearly* as much as benedryl
