Pollen dusting
This is the first year since living in Alabama that pollen has affected me. I have never had allergies. But by the time I finished my run I was a hot mess! Sneezing, sniffling, eyes watering! A friend stopped by my work and gave me a claratin 24hr which seemed to help a little. By the time I got home I felt a little better. I turned on the weather and the guy told me that thunderstorms were moving in. I had a hill run planned for this morning and since it was going to be raining all morning today I canned this mornings run and decided to do it yesterday evening instead. I felt great during the run and I believe I rocked those hills, however, after the run was horrible!! I had youth group last night and by the time I got there my whole face was running, my eyes were swollen, and I couldn't stop sneezing! 2.I have to
3. We have another jam packed weekend with baseball games and birthday parties. Hopefully I can get some laundry done. Hubby is still working a crazy schedule and will be working all weekend. I sure do miss that man! No matter what happens this weekend, I WILL have new running shoes come Monday! Fleet Feet here I come!
Oh, one more thing....I know that's 4 "things". I have an appt. with my podiatrist today at 2:45pm to get my foot checked out. I'm loving the new orthotics however, from the ball of my foot up into my big toe feels like it is on fire after a run....not sure what's up with that. Maybe I just need new shoes?:) I'll keep you posted! I know you can't wait to hear about my feet!Ha!

good luck at the doctor....I always feel like when I get one thing taken care of, something else acts up!

Good luck with your 5k race!! You are going to do great! Remember to have fun and smile when you run:)
Just found your blog! Good luck on the 5k and at the doc!
Love small races too! No long bathroom lines :). Have fun on the 5K and doing laundry!
Good luck April!! Hope your foot gets better and that the pollen goes away--yikes! What a dusting indeed!
That pollen thing drives me crazy! Not only does my hayfever go beserk, but it aleays happens the day I wash my car! Grrrrr...
Good luck on your race!
I completely understand the allergy issues. For the first time in my life my doctor recently told me that I had allergies. I grew up on a farm with no issues. Hope your 5K went well!
For some reason the pollen counts are higher this year. Everyone seems to be talking about allergies!
I hope you have a good podiatrist visit, and the ortotics are figured out. Keep us posted on that! I'm getting orthotics in about a week and a bit anxious about it.
Have a great week.
