Every Step Feels Like a Hammer To My Head!

Oh, this crazy weather!  Waking with a headache from sinus pressure that continues to throb throughout the morning.  I'm not going to let it derail me from my training today.  No Way!  My constant thought - "What happens if I wake up the morning of an event with a headache?"  That truly is my motivation to head to the pool then continue with a short run. 
Most of the research I have read indicates it is ok, if it about the neck.  Below the neck, well, you might need a few days of rest to recover.  Every step may feel just like that dreaded hammer to the head but I can back off a bit.  I need to push through the things that normally keep us from training.  Ok, excuses.  That is what they really are most of the time.  Excuses.  I'm not talking migraine here, just a headache :)  So, out the door I go - hopefully it will be gone by the time I hit the pool!
