Well, I wussed out
 

I feel bad about doing it, but I emailed the Salt Lake asst. race director today and dropped down to the half. I tried to go for a five miler today and just a little bit into the run I was coughing so bad I couldn't breathe. I just can't shake whatever is going on with my lungs.

I think I'm basically going to start over. I downloaded Hal Higdon's Novice program and I'm going to use it for a couple of months to build my base back up. This winter has really sucked.
