300 Norwalk in the park

Well I struggled through another 300 workout, scraping out +4 reps, up to 257 total.  The reason it was a struggle is I have had a rather uncomfortable morning with gastrointestinal “issues”. 

 The nursing home Ali works at has been under quarantine becuase of an outbreak of the norwalk virus.  Norwalk is the virus responsible for some of the cruise ship illness outbreaks we all have read about over the past few years. It is highly contagious and it’s symptoms are violent illness resulting in throwing up and diarhea.  Well I wondered if I caught it this morning.  No I didn’t throw up but I had one of those epsiodes at the work bathroom where you PRAY that noone walks in during.  It was bad stuff.  Luckily, my prayers were answered and noone walked in during the fireworks.  Things have settled down since so maybe it isn’t norwalk.  However I can’t recall anything I ate that would set off such a reaction.

Well anyway, after dealing with that, straining yourself through a 300 is not exactly enjoyable.  Hopefully the urgent trips to the men’s room are over.
