As per title
I did intend to run the marathon, but didn't realise I had covid. Thought I was just dehydrated and that's why I had such a bad headache
Then I felt really tired at about 20km in, and I thought i mustn't have recovered properly from my last ultra (50km a month ago)
Was really mad at myself cos I had to slow down to a 7min per km pace, just to keep moving (slow jog) I actually really wanted to stop but figured at least if I jogged it, I'd finish faster than walking.
Next day I felt absolutely stuffed, but thought I was just tired from running, but my boss told me to go home and take a covid test... So I did and it tested positive straight away
I don't feel great tbh, but I definitely don't feel like I'm dying.... Still don't think it was worth shutting the whole world down over lol.

IIRC, I could have just walked a marathon at a faster pace than the one you ran.
thats why every civilization throughout human history for 50,000 years has restricted female's rights. except for jews, and except for the last century.
women need to be kept at home, and wear trash bags over their heads if they ever go out.
imagine all the half dog half humans we'd have running around if dogs could get women pregnant.

Originally was aiming to do about 4:15 - so just over a 6 minute pace . I'm a girl remember so not as fast as boy runners
Ended up finishing in just over 4:40 so I think I probably could've done it if I was well. Hard to judge. Maybe I'm just making up excuses for myself.
I'm not going to run for a few days at least. We're meant to be flying to Singapore this weekend so trying to get all better beforehand, I don't want to be spreading germs if there's old people on the plane.

Despite its ‘nothingburger’ reputation, COVID-19 remains deadlier than the flu----

athletes who put extreme pressure on their systems are more susceptible to getting all sorts of respitory illnesses, especially anyone doing endurance/aerobic activities.
IDK about the wait a month thing, seems extreme. I was jogging 5 days after my ironman. covid def lingered for a while for me, but not enough to make me only walk for a month thats a bit extremexTUNAx

Yeah a whole month is a bloody long time..
I might take it easy though. Like I said I'm off to Singapore so we'll be doing lots of walking there, and 39 degree heat (Celsius )isn't really great for running in anyway
And then Thailand, and our resort there has free yoga and Muay Thai classes so might just take it easy on the running til we get home. My boyfriend will probably nag me if he thinks I'm overdoing it anyway
