Wouldn’t you know it, I get back up to running 35 minutes without stopping and BANG! I catch some kind of cold! I am totally out of commission between my lungs feeling like someone rubbed them with sandpaper and the general malaise and lethargy that has hit me out of nowhere. I am hoping (but [...]
