Rosehip has the added problem of keeping her training a secret so has to sneak out for long runs when no-one will notice she's gone lol

echinacea, vitamin c, lots of water, rest 2 days, then gentle turn over aerobic stuff (like recovery runs, gentle bike) 2 days, then you'll have lost less than 5 days and can build back up to a few last hard weeks. Good luck. :-)G

Good luck at Wymondham WW - I did the Tarpley 20 last weekend. A few on the day issues that need to be sorted, but hopefully I'm on track with the training.

I'm with G on the echinacea. It's supposed to boost your immune system. Berrocca (the drink) and a kiwi fruit every day will hopefully sort you out Juddi :)

Cheers, I'll get OH to pick me up some supplies. I'm due an 18miler on Saturday, do you think I'm going to need to jig the schedule a bit?

What was the next wk ROTJ? are you due a cutback wk, 'cos I'd swap around if you can - though looking at your log 16 was a fortnight ago.

Hmm running 18 if you're sick isn't sensible - can you do a reschedule?

The cavalry has just arrived with my vitamins and echinacea :)

I've been doing similar - see how you feel and run Sunday instead if you're fine or that reschedule would be OK too -

get well soon :)
