TOTAL HEADACHES TODAY:   1
TIME OF CH ATTACK ONSET:  4:30 am
METHOD OF CH ATTACK ABORTION USED:  Treadmill: warm up for 2 minutes setting 4, run for 3 minutes setting 6, bump to setting 6.5 and run for 7 minutes, cool-down run for 2 minutes at setting 3.  Distance: 1.3 miles.  Peak heart rate: 180.  I also took a Sumatriptan (Imitrex) 100 mg tablet after, prophylactically.

NOTES

Not much to report since this morning.  I’ve felt some tightness in my head most of the day today, but I didn’t have a second headache.  I regret not getting a chance to ride my motorcycle today, but the dizziness was still too much.  Hopefully that will be gone tomorrow and I can get a ride in.  Also didn’t work out today as I had planned, since I started the day with a long run to kill that headache.  I’m going to try to get in a workout tomorrow.
