Could it be the Nasonex?

I’ve been running with less struggle lately. Sometimes it feels effortless. I’m not saying I’m running fast, but I feel much lighter. It could be that the weather has been slightly more mild. It could be that I actually am lighter since I’ve decided to pass on most sugar for the next eight weeks, but I don’t think that’s it – two weeks ago I actually weighed more than I did the week before when I’d been making no such effort, and that’s when I decided to stick with the no sugar but refrain from looking at the scale for a while.

The other thing that’s been different in the past few weeks is that it’s become allergy season again, and I’ve decided to be aggressive with it from the get go, so I’ve been taking Benadryl on a regular basis and using the Nasonex I was prescribed last winter after I’d been coughing for two months. And Nasonex is a steroid. Am I on ‘roids?

Of course, now that I’ve written about it I’m sure it’ll all go away. I hope not. It’s been nice. Being fast would be even nicer, but running with complete ease is really, really nice.

We did 15 this morning. We ran Mt. Bonnell for one of our members’ birthday. It had been a while since I’d done it, even though it’s one of my favorites. It was good to be back.

Giving up sugar right before Halloween with all the candy around? Seems like lunacy to me. :)
