Night Fever

 

Tuesday night was pretty bad, after running with Andy Doel in the morning for 6 miles easy feeling fine (apart from a cough when i finished) i went to work. It was a busy day and i was getting worse every hour and feeling really cold. When i got home i went to bed to have a nap before i went running again, but when i woke up i felt terrible. I didn't go running and went back to bed, and then had the worst sleep of my life! I was waking up nearly every 5 Min's shivering, coughing, sweating until i gave in and went down stairs to watch some telly and get my mind of sleep. It didn't get any better and after vomiting i was decided that i couldn't run the next day so txt Andy (police man on night shift) early doors to let him know and then slept till 11am.

 

So not sure what will happen with training but for the moment I'm not running anywhere, there's no point when the body is in such a bad way. It is a little weird as its not a cold which most people have so hope it wont last as long.

 

Monday i did 2 steady runs, 6miles in the morning and 11miles at night. Felt good in both was a little surprised feeling so bad the next day. Passed a few runners at night including my neighbour and finished the run under 1hour 5minutes.

 

5k race in Nos Galan tonight which i might go and watch and then a friend is having a house party so we shall see if I'm OK to go to that.

 

Not going to try txting anyone after midnight as it will never get through so Happy New Year!
