Will Race for...antibiotics

I love those months where everything is clicking.  Your training is on track.  The scale is moving in the right direction.  You feel strong, confident, inspired, on top of your game and on top of the world.  There might be a hiccup here or there, but for the most part you are just plain awesome.

That was not this month, oh no, that was not this month.  Here is a really scientific graph displaying the dramatic drop in my awesomeness:
As you can see, I hit an all time low this month.  Not a bit of awesome left.  Not only that, but I think I also hit an all time low for exercising.  So what was going on?  Why did this month just suck in the physical fitness department?  Let me break it down:
Week 1- Tapering
Week 2- Injured
Week 3- Injured + sick kids
Week 4- Less injured + sick me
And the month closes with the addition of ammoxicilin and cough syrup with codeine.

The good news is that in 24 hours I should be feeling like a new women... and actually sounding like a women again.  Other positives:
*All the resting was really good for my foot!  It feels great and once I can breath again I will try a slow jog.
*I am now extra motivated to get my flu shot!
*I got all caught up on Jerseylicious!

The best news of all is that tomorrow is a new month and a new beginning.  Both my foot and my respiratory system are on the mend.  I am feeling motivated to make goals and accomplish them.  I have a night of trick or treating (with two cute dinosaurs) ahead of me!  And (hopefully) I have nowhere to go but up, right?

I will leave you with a little Halloween humor (especially if you have ever had a baby).  Happy Halloween!

 How was your October?

What is on deck for November?
