Running - Trail race (Rogue night - beechenhurs) 40:28 [5] 8.37 km (4:50 / km) +161m 4:25 / km
(sick) shoes: X-Talon 212 (Sep16)

This was not a good idea.

I thought that since I only really have a cough now, I'd forget about that while running and it would basically be fine. I pushed the vague feeling that you shouldn't do anything that makes you out of breath with a chest infection as it can push it deeper and make it more serious, out of my mind.

After a few hundred metres, started coughing and continued every 30s or so the whole way round, getting quite painful at times, struggling to breathe on a few sections, then started to get a headache and feel light headed... Bit unfortunate because it affected my enjoyment of what should've been a really good race.

Great cake afterwards, though.
MDC probably 2nd team.

9th - looking at the times I think I'm only around a minute slower than I should've been so not as bad as it felt.hopefully the chest pain I've developed will be gone by tomorrow!I feel as if I've learned a valuable lesson...
