Today’s weight workout was okay (I even made a bit of progress here and there, but cardio was hard. I struggled to get through it more than usual.

By midnight, I was running a temperature (fever) and for the next 5 days I had terrible body aches with joint pain and muscle pain, just as one gets with the flu. But strangely, no sore throat, and no congestion.

So just spent the next four of the five days resting. And then got ready to go to the gym, but was feeling unwell, so opted for a home workout instead . . .

I spoke too soon. :frowning:

It turns out that I was actually coming down with flu; it just hadn’t hit me completely yet. I ended up in bed for two weeks.

Oh well, I’m mostly mended . . . again. Shhhh! :grin:
