Week of Sickness
Not much to write about this week. I went back to work this past Monday and by Tuesday I had somehow caught a cold/flu. With each day that passed it felt like I was getting over it, and then it would come back around. Here it is on Sunday and I can’t honestly say I feel any better than I did on Tuesday. I spent all afternoon in bed watching TV. I am hoping the full day of rest might help. Maybe I need some drugs? Going to the doctor is such a pain though. We still haven’t found a doctor in Kingston. To be truthful we haven’t tried that hard, but that makes doctor trips back to Brockville very bothersome.
My workouts were less than optimal this week due to how I was feeling. I have always heard that if the cold is only in your head it is fine to workout. If it moves to your chest you should take time off. On Wednesday I couldn’t help myself. The weather was mild so I did an outdoor run for an hour. It felt good during the run, but then the cold moved to my chest that evening. Go figure. I missed a few workouts sine then, especially the group ones as I didn’t want to risk getting others sick as well. I travelled 129 kms this past week during my training.
I am hoping next week is a better one.
See you at the finish line….
