Did I really get a flu shot?

Starting in 2000 to the present, I have not reacted well to flu shots.  Sometimes, I am sick for a good 48 hours. Or - better yet - I found ways to avoid getting one at all. Today, however, I got my flu shot, since I know it is important to be healthy and to protect others with I work on a daily basis.

If you have not gotten the flu shot, get yourself to a clinic, pharmacy, hospital, or doctor's office. I detest it as much as you, but you must do it!

On an exercise note, I cannot believe that I will be retiring the white and blue shoes (pictured below) in the upcoming months. I have discovered that 8 is my correct size for Brooks and I wear the shoes much more evenly in the correct size. Maybe they will last longer?

Racing (Brooks Ravenna) and workout shoes followed by easy and long run shoes (Brooks Adrenaline). Someone recently suggested, kindly, that I give up running until my work deadlines are under control. I nodded kindly and thought, "um, respectfully, no - running keeps me sane!"

I haven't a clue what my half marathon time will be on 11/4, but I am just excited to be healthy enough to run it.

Happy Thursday!
