Running While Ill1:00 – 4:55

1:00

I was close to calling this episode Still Still Ill because guess what? I'm still ill and flu season is upon us.

1:09

I have the mother of all colds.

1:11

I've been losing my voice, coughing myself and the kids awake and producing more snotty fluid than a snail farm.

1:18

This was a stumbling block given I'd set myself the challenge of finishing all four runs in my runner plan this week.

1:26

Right, it's Tuesday.

1:31

I'm not well, but there ain't no rest for the wicked.

1:39

I've set myself a target, and that target is I will, I will get every run in my plan done this week to the easy 5K firsts.

1:58

Not even two kilometres in.

2:02

I'm not feeling this run today.

2:06

But I'm hoping once I get halfway, we will have broken the back of it.

2:14

Let's keep going, guys.

2:18

Nearly four kilometres in.

2:20

I haven't given up.

2:22

Just

2:22

got

2:23

to get there.

2:23

5k, certainly.

2:33

OK, 5K done.

2:35

Not a brilliant time, not a terrible time.

2:37

31 minutes.

2:41

I am feeling better after that, so...

2:43

OK, does running help cure the common cold? It certainly alleviates the symptoms.

2:51

And then, on Thursday, I trudged around the village and eked out a 14km long run.

2:59

Less than three kilometres into a 14km long run.

3:07

I'm not feeling it today.
