Monday I rode to and from work and managed to survive swimming but I was struggling with not having had a rest day for a month. That then got a lot worse on Tuesday morning. My run to work was a disaster, despite getting green lights all the way I was nearly 10 minutes slower than either of last week's runs.
Wednesday I rode in to work but then got dragged in to meetings for an extra couple of hours and after a late ride home I was too tired and hungry to even consider going swimming.
Thursday I went for a pair of easy commute rides, hoping to get a bit more recovery before Friday's run. That was going fine until I got overtaken by another bike commuter and it turned into a group ride as we took turns at charging along as fast as we could. Then the trip home was similarly over-paced. I did drag myself to the pool in the evening to make up for Wednesday's missed swim session. I just did a steady 30 minute swim.
Friday I woke up with a bad cold and immediately scrapped my plan to run in to work. Taking the train to work and surviving until lunchtime was as much as I could manage. I was actually so out of it by that point that I managed to misread the timetable and miss the train home.
The entire weekend was a similar write-off as I tried to fight off the bug. As it was only a head cold I could probably have trained over it but I am long overdue for a rest anyway so it was probably not the worst time in the world to be ill for a few days.
