I woke up feeling run down last Saturday morning. But I had a fun 5km race on my schedule so just ignore that, right? I have spent the week (2 actual days off work - I almost never miss work) and coughing fits... green phlegm... you get the idea. That lovely ring of scar tissue in my windpipe is irritated and I'm tired of gagging on the poison that my lungs feel a need to produce. Tired of sick - time to Be Well.
Last night I attended "Between Breaths" at the National Arts Center, in Ottawa, it was in the small theatre beyond the fountain. I don't recall ever having seen anything in that one before. I see lots of shows in the big hall but this was different. I found it challenging to not have a coughing fit every time I head someone else cough. But I managed to not disturb the show. It is an interesting story and even if it wasn't a Newfoundland thing I would recommend that you try to see it.
I have one week until I run the half marathon in Ottawa's Race Weekend... I can grow new lungs in less than 8days. Allons-y!
