My cold seems to be some better.  So I will attempt the 18 miles this morning. But it will be on treadmill at the gym as the temp outside is about 6 degrees with negative wind chills.  I lost another pound somehow, probably from my chest. lol.  Well, I will update after the run. Update:  I made it!  Not very good time.  Last weeks run was better, but I finished.  18 miles, took me just over 4 hours.  Feeling really whipped though.
