There'll be no running for me this week ....

[jamtart3]

I still haven't recovered from a heavy cold - have swollen glands, earache and toothache.

I had hoped that I would be back to running tomorrow - but am wabbit. As part of my constant quest for more drugs to get rid of my symptoms I walked to the local chemist (this is normally my five minute warm up) It took me nearly eight minutes to get there and a shocking ten back (up the hill). Afterwards I was useless - so no running for me!

However, my motivation is still really high. So much so that when I ventured to the supermarket to get lots of really healthy and vitamin and mineral providing foods - I also bought the runners world. Not satisfied there I went next door to the sports shop and bought myself new running shorts. Weirdly - It was a treat to myself because I haven't been well.

My normal treat to myself would have been chocolate, crisps, popcorn or a pizza ... how times change, and how quickly.

Happy running

Poor you. Hope you feel better soon. Sounds like your nose has taken over running duties for the moment!

Sounds like you need a good rest and some pampering. At least you can read your Runner's World and plan your comeback !

Get well soon !

Hope you get well soon, but make sure you are feeling really well before you start pushing your body to do this.

And your treats... that is the way I am going too!! Odd how this plan changes us...
