Lurgy

The marathon training has been set back just at it's most important time. Somehow I have managed to pick up a cold over the weekend. So far it is only a head cold where snot drips constantly. Having read several pages of advice it seems I should be okay to run as long as it stay above the throat. No aches or pains which is a good sign too...just snot! Lots of advice also suggests going for a run ow might shift it to my chest. So I have opted to stick to doing some core work until it clears a bit. I will stay out of the way of the running club as I don't want to pass it on to the many who are doing the Loch Ness marathon or 10km. Emma however will have to suffer and hope her immune system is less lightweight than mine.

Oh dear. Lots of rest and tons of "vit C".

On the plus side - you've done all the work anyway so a bit of rest before the marathon will probably do you no harm at all.

PS - keep away from me. Just in case!
