After smashing week7run3 I was really looking forward to the challenges of week 8 however my head/body have different plans. I seem to have some kind of virus where my head feels mega heavy, I have dizziness and nausea and when I move my eyes left to right it creates noise in my ears πŸ˜•.i missed wk8 run1 last night with my group and I'm willing myself better for Saturday when they do the 1st homework run.panicking that I might miss all of week 8 and how thus might negatively impact me mentally and physically.others have had this 'virus' for weeksπŸ˜•. I'm soooo close to the end I don't want to mess it up 😐

Feeling miserable

Rest and do not run until you are completely well. It is not a good idea to run when you feel like this and the run will still be there.

Make sure you feel fully fit before heading out . please:)
