Danagram #5

I tried something slightly different here, but the general premise is still the same. Good luck!

  1. I feel sick, but not from drinking too much beer.
  2. I try to follow the track, but a barrier blocks the way.
  3. As I walk the path, I fall behind.

Well, it took some considerable help to get this one, but I really like the approach.

ail
rail
trail

For those of you who haven't figured out what I was going for, here's the explanation. For each number I wrote two clues that lead to a set of homophones. For instance, the answer to the first clue could either be ail or ale. For the last two clues, the spelling of either word was the exact same, but since spelling counts and the first two homophones are spelled differently, I tried to nudge you in the right direction by saying it wasn't from beer. So, thoughts?

Phil- What jason and I got was
Ail
Fail (because of the barrier, you don't finish)
and Frail
(you'er weak, so you fall behind)

Tell me we're right!

He he, an interesting alternate solution, though a bit off. Again, each answer is pointed to by two clues, so you're neglecting to take into account the "track" and the "path" in the last two answers. Good try though.
