Rest & recovery

This morning I noticed my throat was a bit "croaky". This has developed as the day went on but in the past when you take a rest this tends to happen. One of my fellow "Great Glen" runners has also come down with flu like symptoms so I guess the near hypothermic experience is taking it's toll. Looking at it positively taking a rest this week is essential to ensure my tired limbs and muscles don't get injured but I need to balance that against doing nothing. So I'll restrict myself to some light yoga and light spinning sessions. I will also use the time to make my preparations for the food, nutrition and equipment I will be taking which is a huge task. Let's see what tomorrow morning brings and hopefully it won't be "man flu"!
