A whole week off!

I've just had a whole week off thanks to a tummy bug. Started last sunday night with vomitting... thought i'd come right on tuesday but apparently it was still in my system as i got really sick again saturday/sunday with nausea, cramps and diarrhea. Not nice.

In the couple of days where i thought i'd recovered i managed to get in 2 swims and a short run. My run on friday was pathetic though and i knew then that i wasn't well still. I'd planned on a 10km but by the time i'd run 3km i knew i needed to shorten it to 5km.

I'm trying not to panic about missing a whole week of running. It was only meant to be 35-40km total this week anyway but with a fair bit of x-training as well.

Will probably take today off too since it's the first day i'm feeling completely normal. Focus on eating well today (i've lost 1.5kg, not a bad thing but my energy levels are very depleted), and plan the rest of my week. I think i need to reshuffle things to ease back into it this week. Now that there are only 6 weeks left i'm trying to organise long runs around Jesh's schedule so we can do them together.

Will post revised training plans up here later.
