8,000m on Concept2 Model D, 35:35.4, 3 MAR 14, Kabul, Afghanistan

Today is day 101 of the campaign.

iThink:
The Smiths, "How Soon Is Now?"

WX at      35 (2)     33 (1)     30.06 (1018)     E 5     light rain; mist

Odometer 13B: 179.2mi

Z3-Z4.  Average/max heart rate = 159/171

It is most definitely not light rain or mist.  It's giant hairy snowflakes coming down that were raindrops that froze.

I have a milder version of the head cold I had earlier when I got into theater.  It's not killing me as badly as the first one did, but I don't feel great.  I felt better after erging out 8,000m, but I was pretty controlled as to level of effort as I didn't want to go anaerobic.  I just couldn't afford another day off, partly for physical reasons, partly for mental ones.

After the last few days, I wasn't up to it and I am still pretty beat.
