SICK |
This happened after I managed to kick my lethargy and got onto a bit of a roll, completing all my training for seven days straight. Then it hit me - some nasty combination of runny nose, cough, headache, stomach ache-ness - whatever it was, it wasn't pretty. I missed five days of training. Grrr ...
In all honesty though, I should have seen it coming. The same week my training got on a roll, my diet kinda went to shit and I rarely got my 8 hours sleep. Now that that's happened once, I should hope I don't let it happen again. I'm going to keep a food journal to make sure I'm eating right/enough and keep track of my energy levels to see if anything stands out.
Anywho, finally felt better last Friday so Saturday I was back in the pool. It was pretty much an all pull practice for 1.5 hours. Greeeeeat. What a way to get back into the swing of things. Lats, pecs and tris are hurting right now. Later in the day I completed my 2.5 hr training ride no problem.
Sunday called for a short bike and then a long run. I was feeling kind of warm the whole day and started to feel a bit of a tickle in the back of my throat. I didn't want to chance it that my the sick would come back so ... I just cut it down to the long run. I've been running indoors mostly so I decided to take it outdoors to see how I'd do on the pavement. Wasn't sure how my body would take to the harder surface but, it held up nicely.
