Stomach Flu and DISCIPLINE

At first glance, nothing about this run looks special. Maybe “special” is a poor word choice; every run, no matter how routine or average is special in the sense that you’re out there running. You’re physically capable of that act and mentally motivated enough to do it which in itself is special. So let me rephrase that opening statement. At first glance, nothing about this run looks out of the ordinary. It was a common route and distance for me at a relaxed pace. What makes it “special” for me is the fact that it came at the tail end of about a week of my household being plagued with a case of the stomach flu. Of the five of us, only one managed to avoid vomiting. I spent the week leading up to this run cleaning up vomit, caring for my vomiting kids and wife, and doing my own share of vomiting.
