Up and down week. Did really well at the G3 on Saturday, plus a 2-mile cooldown with a lady who’d come second in the race – so maybe a bit quicker than my normal cooldown pace, but felt good anyway. Then on Sunday I felt great, so went for my planned LSR – ran along the Thames Path to Walton Bridge, a towpath route mostly that ended up around 12 miles total. So already in one weekend I’d done just over 20 miles. Great.<\/p>\n
Rested Monday, and then on Tuesday morning I didn’t feel good. I had a sore throat, and a slight fever. Took medication, went to work, and came home normal time. On Wednesday and Thursday I stayed home from work, in bed mostly. On Thursday afternoon I felt better, so went for a four-mile run and felt OK afterwards too. But I clearly wasn’t – that evening, and the following day, back to sick again. So after a great start to the week, it didn’t go so well overall.<\/p>\n
