Oh man what a run,  I met with JulieC and Melanie at Grovecrest el. and Julie's hubby drove us up Provo canyon and dropped us off just below the dam.  We ran on the road until vivain and got on the path until the mouth of the canyon and headed up 8th south into Orem.  Then we got on the canal for the last 6 miles.  Started out just fine but by mile 5 my vision started going all burry and I was not feeling well.  Thought to myself hu I wonder what is going on, took a hammer gel and ran on.  My vision continued getting worse and I wasn't able to see hardly at all.  Around mile 13 it started to get better just to come back worse and with a mind splitting head ache.  I finished and was sicker than a dog.  I just wanted to lay on the grass and not get up.  But I went and got in grove creek with the girls and dropped Julie off at her house.  Was very nauseous on the way home, grabbed on of my son's through up cups and ended up using it and stopping and up chucking for a good 5 mins. out my door.  Came home and stayed in bed until about 3 pm and had to get up to go to a wedding.  I don't think I have ever been that sick, I have come close after marathons but this was bad.   But I still ran half decent considering.  Had 9 miles that were 7-7:30's and most of the others were below 8's.

Oh Josse, so sorry it got worse for you. You ran so strong all week, your body was just wanting a break I bet. Huge mileage for you this week. Now as we taper you will be all freshened for that SGM pr. PS I got my migraine after watching Amber's game in the searing heat, it got pretty bad but glad I didn't get the nausea to go with it. It is now trying to fade after taking my prescription medication for it. I tried frozen bag of rice on my head, felt good but wasn't enough. I am impressed how you could run so strong today with the headache and high mileage. BIG REST DAY TOMORROW : DDDDDDDDD

Ya migraine suck big time. I feel a lot better now, I hope yours clears up soon. Thanks for letting me tag along, it was still fun to run and chat with you.

wow, an amazing run and pace in spite of feeling so gross! I hope things feel better today and that you don't have to deal with that again.

WOW!! Sorry to hear you weren't feeling well. Kind of caught who you were as Scott and I passed you on the trail. Hope you are feeling better now.:(
