The running & walking experiences of an 86 year old man. I used to run and walk alone, but now I walk with my wife, although I sometimes go walking alone. My overall goal is to reach age 100 and still be walking for my long and medium walks. I enjoy my walks, especially those with my wife, although I miss going long distance.

The flu bug bit me (and my wife, too)
I found out late yesterday afternoon why I didn't have any energy during my run yesterday. I've come down with the flu. My wife came down on Monday. I think the flu bug came down from Evanston with my grandchildren who visited with us for three days last weekend. Two of the four had a dry cough, and that was the first symptom that my wife and I had. So, I'm not running while I recover.

Sorry to hear you have the flu.
ReplyDeleteMy wife doesn't understand what a horrible feeling it is when you are running and you can feel the cold or flu taking hold.
Hope you get better soon.
We take zinc and echinacea which sorts us out...
