Back on the (asthma) IC

So I haven't posted on here since my 15k run 10 days ago as I am in the middle of another asthma flare up and havent run since (although rest assured I have been following everyone exploits).

Back to the doctors yesterday and on a stronger inhaler and more steroid tablets.

Hopefully they will kick in quickly and I am hoping to get a run of some sort done on Friday.

In the meantime, run happy, run safe everyone. 😁

I know how you feel Chris..I haven't been feeling well for 20 days now and think it may be rhinitis and nasal drip with conjunctivitis thrown in😢..seeing the doc this afternoon so hoping for some meds that will work!

Friday pencilled in for me too...lets hope we are better. Its not much fun on the ic is it.

Good luck 😊 xxx

It's not, I hate it and I always worry I will lose all the fitness levels although I know that wouldn't happen in just a few days. This is my 3rd asthma flare up since starting couch to 5k last September.

Get well soon Jan xx

Sorry to hear you’re fighting that rotten asthma again. Stay positive and you’ll be back running very soon. Don’t forget, all those past runs are still in the bank so you will pick back up quickly again when you do get those running shoes back on. Take care of yourself!

So sorry to hear you’re having another flare up. Fingers crossed for a Friday run. I’ve been taking my running stuff to work in hopes I could squeeze a lunch time run in this week but it hasn’t happened. No time for lunch so definitely no time for a run. I have Friday off so here’s hoping I can join you guys and also get a Friday run in 🤞
