Patience

by Tim Burke / December 20, 2008

December 2, 2008 - Tomorrow is the start of the World Cup season but unfortunately I will be missing the first race.  I came down with a nasty cold three days ago and I have been unable to kick it.  It will absolutely kill me to watch the first race on TV from my hotel room but I am confident that I am making the best decision by sitting out.  Even with missing the first race, I will still race 8 times over the next 18 days and I can’t afford to start a schedule like that with less than 100% health.

My plan now is to rest up and come back for Saturday’s 10K Sprint race.   Hopefully I will feel healthy enough by Friday to do a short speed workout to prepare for Saturday’s race.  It usually takes me one to two hard workouts after a cold before I feel normal again.  For now all I can do is be patient and wait this cold out…
