HI Sara
I went back to the Dr yesterday and have been given the big DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT for the Whittlesea ride.
I'm so sorry.
I hope I can still train with you at some stage, it's just that my immune system has taken such a beating I have to get back into things really gently.
They refunded my entry fee though, nice of them
Sorry again :(
SECRET SARA
The most important thing is to get better- I am fine about going by myself- remember last year when my friend backed out on the City to Surf in Sydney- I went anyway. Hope you are doing the chicken soup thing or whatever works.
How did the job interview go? I hope you were DAZZLING. Rest up and I will see you on the road in the cold when you are well!

I think she is front runner for "the nicest person evah" award.
The Dr has prescribed no exercise until at least this coming weekend (three whole weeks off!!$%#&??!!), and then to start very slowly, maybe (and I quote) with 'some gentle walking'
Resulting inner monologue:
Walking? Walking?!!??!!??!!
Walking isn't exercise, it's how you get your lunch!
followed by
Don't be such a prat, Mrs Tickets-on-yourself
and then
Maybe I've been sicker than I thought....I'll wait until the weekend. And then walk.
If you have any thoughts on immune-system boosters - superfoods, supplements, anything - tell me! This winter has been Utterly Tiresome to say the least.
My interview went much better than I expected. I was nearly sick with fear and had to overcome an all-but overwhelming urge to run away, but apart from that the old skills came back pretty easily and I am very hopeful. We should hear by mid next week.
Waiting, waiting, waiting....

I am sure the time will just fly by!
Good luck with everything...I like to drink a lot of orange juice...though that is high in energy too.
Very frustrating. Stupid lurgy!!
I don't know what to do to boost an immune system. But if you figure it out, let me know. I always get sick in winter too.
I hope you feel better soon and good luck with the job!
Rest up.
OH that sucks! I hope you get well soon..
Oh no -- but walking is good for you!
Try echinacea, zinc, and lots of vitamin C. I take an Emergen-C, which is effervescent vitamin C plus other minerals every day. Mine also has glucosamine and chondroitin in it, to help my joins stay smooth, supple, and pain free (theoretically, anyway!).
Feel better soon!
I'd visit a naturopath. I have a high potency vit-c powder that disolves in water. I find that useful.
Plenty of veggie and chicken soups.
Get well soon!
You have had a crap winter haven't you - bummer!!!
mmmmm homemade chicken soup...
Good luck with the job interview - at least you have that eating up all the nervous energy you would normally use for exercise...
Take care
Hope you feel better, lots of rest prescribed.
Good luck on the job results.
Well, at least they refunded your entry.
Rest up and feel better!!!
