Yea that is the most interesting thing going on today and pretty much all of last night as well. This dam cough is annoying and hurts like hell every time that I breathe just a little deep, wham - starts the tickle and the coughing that sometimes stops after one or two coughs, other times it goes on for several. Not fun at all obviously.
Anytime that I am lying down it creeps up on me even more and I cannot fall asleep because of the cough. If I do, it makes sure to wake me up and decent intervals so I do not get a full nights sleep. Today the same thing happened when I decided to take a nap for a little while before going for a bike ride. I think I coughed every 5 minutes or more, feels like my throat is on fire!
Cycling
I did manage to get out and put some miles on the bike. I am not sure how much good or bad it may have done for my health this time. My mouth was really dry from the wind and cold weather combination mixed in with my cold.
In the end, I was able to go just over 22 miles which is fairly good for a windy day that I did not feel very good while out and about. More times than not, once out, I will get this magical second wind and be able to ride, ride, ride until my legs or something start giving out. Today I simply had no strength and the wind was making it that much more difficult to breath and ride as fast as I would have liked to today.
Maybe its all just a blessing in disguise so that I don't hurt myself and not be able to go bowling next week with the team or something. No matter, its behind me now and I was able to put in about six more miles than planned once I started cycling today. I honestly thought that if I was able to make it 10 miles or so without calling it quits I would have been happy.
