Great news on both fronts Paul. I read somewhere that exercise improves the effectiveness of the vaccine so a good excuse to get out for a run afterwards 🙂

I was going to run before mine on Saturday - maybe a change of plan is in order 🤔

Maybe you have a reaction to your covid jab? Feeling rotten physically will make everything else even more intolerable. Try to rest a bit today if you can - give yourself a fighting chance of bouncing back a little stronger tomorrow.

That's true - the jab helps with one worry at least. Remember tho, a carer has to look after himself first in order to be fit and able to care

Excellent! I'm guessing you're the same age as me. I had mine a week ago, no ill effects. 🤪

I keep imagining those little antibodies getting up to speed. 😊

Nice one Paul. Mrs and I got ours on Wednesday. Sore arm which is going now. Managed to do my longest road run of the year yesterday so no ill effects. Jog On.
