After running a half marathon or full marathon you must rest. Don't run for the first week after the race, then take it easy. Work your way up.
I wish I had known this BEFORE I went out and wore myself out. I might have avoided that evil cold sore and now that evil sinus infection. No running for me tomorrow. Instead I'm sitting here with a headache, a stuffy nose, hoping for quick recovery.
Another lesson learned I suppose...
Sorry I hope you are feeling better soon! Did you do a netti pot? Works wonders for sinus infections.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear this. Feel better soon.

Hope you feel better soon! Those are a real knockout.
ReplyDeleteI'm not as hardcore as you, running half marathons and all that, but I do recall after I ran a 10 K recently, I decided it would be a great idea to drink several shots of tequila (in celebration of only walking 7 times during the race), and I did NOT feel well the next day. Maybe your readers should heed this advice too? Just a thought.
