Hills of Death (HOD) Mar 2017 6:58pm, 22 Mar 2017 33253 posts	0 Hills of Death (HOD) I know what most people's view is below the neck don't run just a sniffle (manflu) take it easy. But I had awful run on Sunday at half now I know why had this virus/cold it's come out today so I'm gonna bin the running till Friday to be safe. How long do you wait for colds to arrive then run ? Who ploughs through and what has been results
Seratonin Mar 2017 8:52pm, 22 Mar 2017 15568 posts	0 Seratonin I just trust my instinct as I generally know if I should get out for a run or not (if that makes sense). When I do feel like running I think it is going to kill or cure by either sweating it out or just staying around a little longer.
Cyclops Mar 2017 8:58pm, 22 Mar 2017 2887 posts	0 Cyclops I love an excuse to curl up on the sofa under a blanket feeling entirely justified in not running!
Surrey Phil Mar 2017 11:15pm, 22 Mar 2017 1893 posts	0 Surrey Phil Agree with HOD regarding the above/below the neck policy. However, I'd stay indoors if my sinuses were seriously blocked or if I had a headache too.
