September running: Ups and downs

Ran a week of high mileage followed by two weeks of really low mileage. Pretty mediocre month regarding training. Racing wise though I came out victorious in the 2008 Aquathlon series tournament winning 2 of 4 races.
Had a strange injury that forced me to take 5 days totally off from running. Still haven't figured out what caused my severe abdominal pain. Went to a clinic and a big hospital, had x-rays, urine tests, blood tests, but nothing. A doctor said it was asthma ?? Another just a cold ... who knows ...
