Treat the lurgy with the respect it deserves...we've developed a dangerous culture in this country of "toughing out" flu and colds and people are coming a cropper as a result.

If you can make out for a run while feeling low that's great but don't put too much pressure on yourself.

Very true...i am always a bit worried that if i miss runs i will fall behind 😕

Oh bum, bum, bum. It’s horrid when the lurgy takes hold, but take some rest and relaxation and you’ll be much better next time out
