Friday– started feeling ill. By evening in bed with a banging headache and a fever
Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. Wednesday, Thursday (!!)- all in bed ill. Turned out to be proper flu. Absolutely miserable. You know you are ill when you can’t even open your eyes to watch Netflix!
Today- out of bed. Still feeling spaced out with the remains of a chesty cough. Back to square one with the running. FFS!
From beer belly to sub 35minute 10km before I turn 40.
