A sore throat is ripping through the Sparkie household at the moment. Another one for the rumour mill. Take some time to get on top of it - your training won't amount to much if your body can't absorb it. Doing nothing is more productive in these instances (from someone who did an hour run and a strength session yesterday).

Wise words from the Sparkie man. I think I might have said something vaguely similar myself:) Hope you're feeling better tomorrow.

My son had the swollen eye thing recently which had him down to the Childrens Hospital. The Eye Regisitrar diagnosed a wayward pollen spore and to irrigate with a sterile saline solution. Cleared up in a day or two.

Hope this helps. :)

Rumour mill? What rumour mill.. ;-)

Chill girl. You are not falling apart. You just need a rest. Your training load has increased BIG TIME in the last few weeks. It's bound to take a toll. After all (and I'm sorry to break this to you) but you aren't Wonder Woman

I think I have caught the same thing just by reading the blogs of sick people :)Going out in sympathy I guess!

Hope you feel better soon.

That one day in bed I had last week (after battling the lurgy for so long) was just what I needed. I hope it works for you just as well! Are you giving yourself a regular rest every now and then?

Time resting is always a good thing for the body. Helps it get stronger.

Listen to your body Ellie and it won't fail you. Take it easy and make sure you recover from this bout of illness. Then when you recover you can rip right in again.
