Still don't have a clear head today (Thursday) and still have nausea if I wake during the night. Take care.

I had the full battery of tests and while it didn't stop my running it did impact on performance until about the spring of 2010. My brother-in-law had a similar experience (long sportive cycling is his thing) and was below par for most of a year as well. The bottom line is "listen to your body". We're running at a point in time when most elites are long retired and adapting to the changes we experience is the only way to stretch more fun out of the whole thing. <br /><br /><br />RichardAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-63671929574337846382014-12-07T13:03:39.352+00:002014-12-07T13:03:39.352+00:00That's a very tough post to read.I underwent a...That's a very tough post to read.I underwent a battery of tests last summer after going to the GP- everything was fine but she said i had kanckered my body and may have had a viral problem but nothing she could figure out. I am sure it's probably a viral thing with you and combined with some incredibly hard running of late took it's toll on you. Rest and a sensible attitude will see you through it. It might clear up very quicklycathalhistoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04722281301610566026noreply@blogger.com
