Cold after cold is not stopping me!

Today was slow and easy as I am trying to get back on the bike.  Have beenso sick from back to back head colds, it's kicking me hard!
Too much stress and work is my best guess.   Just finished my third around of antibiotics and seeing the doctor again this Monday.
My last good ride was March 10th at Solvang century -

Today I road Westridge to Hubb and down to Chalon and Mandeville and climbed the 3Bs- 3097 feet of climbing and 22 miles.
Felt tired in places and strong in other places.  I am very concerned how this illness will effect me and CC - so I just need to remember how grateful I am to wake up, so if I can get some back enough to finish CC, I will be happy. 

Coach Lou is very encouraging and feels confident that our months of training has given me a strong enough base to finish the race.
But I am still coughing, so I know I am not 100% - Good news is I don't feel the least bit tired after riding today, so there is some good news.

I am taking myself off work until after Apirl 7th!  That's all there is to it.  My job is just too stressful to do and train hard for a mountain bike race.  Some depos, we don't get breaks, very  short lunch and cannot hydrate with my fingers busy on the writer.

And my broken foot is hurting again?  May be the high heels? - I need to sell all those shoes!!!!! lol

So with Grace and a smile, I am pushing onward to do my best on April 7th!   Or ?? I thought about getting a tandem and hiring a captain?
lol -
Please pray for me to get well!
