After a great day nutritionally and in the gym on Monday, and 8.5 hours of sleep, I woke up Tuesday morning with a sore throat and feeling kind of wonky. I proceeded about my day as normal but as it carried on, I started to feel worse. Feverish, sore/fatigued, cough, mucus, etc. I decided to call it an early day at work and brought myself home, getting worse all the time. I ended up being in bed about 5:30pm yesterday afternoon until 10am this morning. My fever broke over about a 3 hour span from 3-6am this morn. I got out of bed finally feeling a little better but like I'd been run over by a truck. I'm still a little feverish but think I'm on the mend. My nutrition has been absolutely legit during this whole ordeal although its all been a blur. Thankfully, I've not lost my appetite and haven't had a problem keeping hydrated. I'll be laying low the next couple days in order to rally for Saturday's Fight Gone Bad IV down at the Village Green. I'm confident I'll be ready to go. And even if I'm still illing, I imagine I'll still be able to get up for it. It seems the most defining performances of many athletes careers were fueled by influenza. Whether ill or well, I don't think I can lose.
