Well...

... dreaded LUNG AILMENT struck Wednesday! Lungs in pain Wed. and Thurs. even as I had extreme work intensity/fatigue.  Now it's just changed into a slightly head cold, hopefully nothing dramatic.  I had a lovely little running route designated from my work hotel, sent to me by a new friend who has been very helpful this week with various matters, but I figured the poor lungs would be better off without it - instead I just ran one mile on treadmill in hotel fitness center, then did half an hour of core and upper body.  Will see how I feel tomorrow before I decide either way about exercise, though I am yearning for a bit of a run at least - might just be 30 minutes, though, and I have already regretfully given up my notion of 'rewarding' myself for 2-3 weeks of extremely hard work with some lavish exercise!  One more week of teaching before spring break, can ramp back up exercise at end of next week once I've gotten back in a better sleep groove (awoke this morning at 5:30, feeling knackered but also completely unable to get back to sleep, ugh).  Very happy to be home, and foresee a quiet weekend of reading for Monday's classes and grading a few papers...

10min run, 30min strength

You are very strong and motivate, I don't know where you find the strength to do exercises when you don't feel good. Take care and best wishes.
