No Friday Funday for me, I’m still sick.
Quick post today–I’ve been meaning to share the few runs I’ve done, but I’ve been under the weather all week. It looked like I was on the mend; there were about 10 days of healthy Helly and then BAM!! I feel worse than ever š¦ I seriously feel like I’ve been sick all of 2015…
It seems to still be bronchitis related as my cough is ever apparent and my voice is still on Spring Break. I’ve even broken out the good ‘ol microphone at work so that I can still teach–this whispering, rasp I’v got going on ain’t cutting it. I’ve made an appointment with my doctor on Monday to hopefully stop this nonsense.
You know things are getting serious when I call the doctor.
So, no running. Normally, I’d throw caution to the wind and still run, but I really, really want to get better. And like for real better. I’ve been doing some stretches and floor exercise videos–nothing to crazy as my body is feeling this beat down of sickness, but something daily to make me feel better. Paranoia sets in that all the running/training you’ve done is going out the window you know?
I hope everyone has a good weekend–my daughter has her second race on Sunday so I’ll be back soon to recap š
I’m trying, I’m trying!! š¦
–How do you keep things going while sick?
Just rest and drink lots of hot honey lemonade.
Gonna have to try that!
Dang, weren’t you just sick!?! Get well soon! Do nopales help?
I’ve seriously been sick all of 2015 š¦ Nopales cures everything doesn’t it? š
Oh Helly I’m sorry to hear that you’re sick again! Take care! And I hope your daughter has a great race tomorrow.
Thank you!! Will keep you posted! š
Sorry to hear you’re still feeling so terrible! But you need to seriously rest! I took 3 weeks off of everything! And I was miserable, but I got healthy sooner. It took a total of 6 weeks for me not to cough anymore. Rest! Your body needs it.
I know š¦ I know I should do nothing but it’s SO hard. And of course the weather is like perfect š¦ UGH.
When I’m sick, I lay super low. If I overdo it, I’ll stay sick, and I want to get BETTER!
I know ultimately that’s what I *should* do but it’s sooo hard. Espeically with the weather here being so ridiculously beautiful. It’s like it’s teasing me š¦
Ugh, I’m sorry you’re feeling gross!! I hope whatever it is FINALLY clears up!
Thank you! I hope so too! Seeing a doc on Monday and keeping fingers crossed I can get over this
What a bummer. Fingers crossed for a speedier and better recovery this time around!
Thank you! ā¤
So sorry to hear that you are STILL sick!!! Keep resting and hope you feel better soon!!
Thank you!!!
yikes..it does seem like you’ve been sick a ton this year. Glad your taking things easily and being cautious
Trying! It’s hard because I want to run!! But I also want to get better and for real better
š¦ You poor thing! You have been sick most of the year! That’s terrible, I’m sorry! Best wishes to your daughter this weekend! I hope she has a fun time! š
Thank you! Hoping practice makes it easier š
I was battling a cold all week as well… I always get sick this time of year! I drank tons of gatorade and got lots of rest. I ran Friday and today through the cough/sniffling and surprisingly feel much better!
I know right!? Running makes me feel better too but then everyone says I should rest my body but then I want to run but I should also rest….LOL
Rest up, I know how you feel!! Feel better soon!
Aw I’m so sorry you haven’t been feeling well! I’ve been sick too but definitely not like you. It’s tough to keep things going when you aren’t feeling well. I always forget how long it takes to get back to our normal selves. I hope you feel better soon!
When I’m sick I really don’t do much at all. Maybe some planks and ab stuff if it’s just a head cold, but it’s really important to let your body rest and recover. I hope you get over this soon!
You know the song, this is the song that never ends…that’s how I feel about this cold!! I hope you feel better soon Helly!
Sorry to hear you are still sick! This winter has been terrible for sickness/colds in our house. My youngest was sick with a stomach bug last week and I, a nasty head cold.
