Feeling so awful still after my vaccine on Sunday. How long after feeling “back to normal” do you get back out there ? And how much fitness can you loose running wise a week ? Thanks

If you are still feeling awful more than three days after getting vaccinated I think you should report back to your doctor or a medical expert, don't run for the moment.

I think it's quite normal to feel crap after the vaccine, I felt dreadful for almost a week. I didn't think of bothering my doctor.

I’m sorry you are still feeling awful. I felt rough for 24 hours then just not so great the following 24 hours but manageable. At this point I went back and did week 1 run 1 which helped me a lot to be honest plus loads of water. I hope you find what works for you and that you recover soon
