Down with the Sickness

I woke up Thursday morning feeling a sore throat and stuffy head. I had managed to avoid the dreaded cold virus all winter but it finally caught me. Not a big deal, its just your ordinary head cold. I did manage some roller/trainer time along with two lunch time core training classes this week. I even took a couple hours of vacation time on Friday and managed a good 2 1/2 hour ride. I had hoped to feel good enough on Saturday to to hit the road for a couple of hours. I almost had the motivation to throw a leg over the bike after watching Fabian Cancellara win Milan - San Remo on Cycling.tv. I was feeling miserable and it was snowing...my motivation for a cold wet ride lasted about 5 seconds.
