Okay so plan was to do run this morning. Woke up feeling like I had a head cold. So spent 10min arguing with myself whether to delay or not. Decide to stop procrastinating and just do it. Set treadmill up then seen 3min of running aarrgghh. .. Decided to push on anyway. So glad I did 🎉😃.

Go you! Those are good ones when you push on through. And first thing on a Monday too!

Well done on doing it despite not feeling well. It's always fine to try and then if you are really not ok then knowing to stop is important too. I've often heard that head/colds etc is fine to run but that with chest stuff, best rest. I am not way medical but this seems reasonable to me.... about to put that to the test myself.... hope you feel better soon
