You'd think things would have to improve after my last post, but let me list the hilarious shenanigans that have made up the month since my last post:
- Viral infection
- Sinus infections
- Pneumonia (mild fortunately)
- Kidney stones (That was a fun way to spend my son's birthday! In the ER in hideous pain)
- Torn intercostal muscles (from coughing too much)
- Asthma
- Pleurisy
After several weeks of 'making do' and coming into work in a vain attempt to be normal I finally gave up two weeks ago and took a week off sick, followed by a week of working from home....
It's been a hideously slow road, two steps forward and one step back, and today is my first full day back at work (and it's now 4:51 and I'm exhausted!!)
Needless to say that training has completely gone out the window. I can barely breathe, my chest muscles still hurt when I cough (which is often), and I've lost 6kgs (which is not a good thing for this scrawny runt!)
Luckily I have some annual leave coming out where I can hopefully recover fully and return ready to hit the training hard for the last 4 months before the event... But at this stage I'm very glad I didn't sign up for Sydney!!!
