...because now I have the flu and it’s taking me all my time and energy to shuffle across the floor.

Flu REALLY hurts 🤒😷

Get well soon! And take it easy, the flu really knocks it out of you for longer than you think.

Get well soon. Hunker down and take care

Ooh, take care of yourself and take time with your return to running. As JaySeeSkinny says, flu takes a hell of a lot out of you. Hope you feel better soon😊

Sorry to hear you are down with flu, not very nice at all. Sounds like a few duvet days are in order so go with it and look after yourself, running can wait.

Just been asleep for 21/2 hours 🤭 didn’t have a duvet - just a dog over my feet.

Get well soon Maddee and as JaySeeSkinny says, the effects of flu hang around longer than we think. Just ease back gently. You might not feel like running for a wee while and that's ok. There's lots going on under the surface that we can't see and we think we feel fine and then 🤒

Oh God, I still have my 13km run scheduled for this weekend. Hope it doesn't have the same effect on me.

Get well soon!
