I’ve got a cold. It started off mildly enough, so I binned a training ride to allow it to pass. It’s got worse anyway though, so now I’ve done nothing for the last 2 days (I had a century planned for today), I’m back at work tomorrow and I’m feeling very sorry for myself. Oh, and I’ve scraped the skin off my nose from the constant snot wiping. Bah.

I’ve got to get rid of it sharpish though so I’m resisting the urge to go out running or biking until I know I’m 100% again. I’ve trained with a cold before and ended up feeling like a zombie for 4 days afterwards.

I was watching Dave Haygarth’s star 3 Peaks turn on Countryfile again earlier. If you’re doing the race or you’re remotely interested and you’ve not seen it, it’s worth a gander. Simon’s got a bit part in it too 😉
