Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
6.69	0.00	6.69

Ran with Troy for just over 2 miles then we parted so I could add on. I ended up running 6.19. I was told by Troy to slow down, so that was good that it felt easy when picking it up. However I still have extreme fatigue symptoms, sinus pressure (which my ortho warned me about from the bottom braces) causing histamine release. I can't remember if histamine release can cause fatigue. Since benadryl is an antihistamine and people get drowsy on it so I am not sure of the answer. Any way still intense fuzzy fatigue in the head with dizziness and muscle/tendon fatigue. Again not sore just tired. I will probably go in to see Dr. Remington. It is a pattern for me to feel this way in the Spring even when I was a teenager in track by mid May I would fatigue out and couldn' t move and become extremely depressed. I don't understand it. Dr. Remington would have tons of ideas. He is into wholistic healthcare. I should probably test my adrenals--the stress gland. Okay back to my run. After the first mile in 9:00 I was able to wake myself up into cruise control and do the remaining 5.2 miles at 7:49 pace that is with a steep hill by AF Temple on 700 north (last mile 6:55). 1/2 mile cool down at 8:34 pace. I will only run four tomorrow real slow after I work tonite. Then try to do a good run for the Five Miler from the blog. It depends on how messed up I get after working the next two nights. Ran 32 miles after such schedule the end of March.....but I didn't have this much fatigue then. So we shall see. This is an extreme taper probably only 27 miles this week. I think this will benefit me. Avg pace for total mileage: 8:01.

NICE run! You're doing a great job listening to your body. I hope Dr. Remington has new and improved solutions for you. I like the wholistic approach to managing our health.
