My cold has almosty finished subsiding, but I'm a bit sinusy (which has caused much sniggering amongst the students). Think I'll be having to take it easy on Sunday. Although marathons and taking it wasy don't really go together....

Please not this is specific advice for Kstuart who i would hate to have a bad a run on Sunday and finish behind me and should not be followed by anyone else.
