I was a little bit ill today - AGAIN. Rather irritating, since I am actually looking after myself, eating well, exercising, resting properly no alcohol etc. I guess it is flue season after all.

I woke this morning with a bad headache and a pain in the stomach. I had food with Tobasco Sauce on it so that might have been it, although it hasn't affected me this way before. Felt poorly all day, and worked from home.

I gradually felt better as the day progressed, and so I decided to go for a run tonight. I planned to take it really easy, and did a 30 minute 30 second first lap. I returned in almost exactly 30 minutes 30 seconds, the first time I have done an even split on a longer run. My heart rate was quite low even though I had managed a good speed. I stopped for water on the way back, so the average speed was slightly better than it shows.

My left heal gave me a bit of sharp pain in the first 1-2 km tonight but was good after I warmed up. So all good in general. I have a 15 minute speed/efort run tomorrow and then the race on Sunday.
