After having had 6 days off with a stomach bug and a cold, I decided it'd been left long enough, so off I went, plenty of tissues in my pockets and flippin heck it was hard work, legs felt great, nose burning like mad, fought off a stitch and a desire to throw up at one point, but I KEPT GOING and completed it. Great mental hurdle crossed, I can keep pushing through even when it's not comfortable!

Well done especially as you're not 100% better. Have a good rest and enjoy your victory!

Well done you! I've had a cold too, it didn't feel too bd until I tried to go for a run, then I really felt quite grim. Bit of a sneaky bu**er this cold if you ask me! Hope you feel better soon x
