sniff, sneeze, medicate

It seems that every time I get into running some pretty serious miles, I get waylaid by some super powered cold. I am training for another 1/2 marathon in May, and (was) doing pretty well on my program...but boy, did I get the shit kicked out me this week. Breathing hurts right now---my lungs feel like they're on fire, and walking up the stairs at home leaves me seriously winded. This will deeply hamper my scheduled 8 mile run tomorrow. I think.
I'm not saying that there is a greater force at work who has it in for me, but seriously??? Can't I stay healthy for, say, 3 months?
Feeling sorry for myself here. I think I'll just take another shot of Nyquil and go back to bed.
p.s. what up with getting carded constatnly for the cold medicine??? do I look like I'm manufacturing meth?
