going for sub 40 - gjoko - 25-06-2013
Day 15 Mon 65min easy ~11km

Day 16 Tue 10 x 400m @ 92sec
I hit the track at noon. Sun shine from clear sky, 27ðC and no wind.
The heat was unbearable.

I have some bad news.
Varicella zoster virus has caused me a neural virus infection on top of my head and the infection has also spread out to my left eye... which might lead to permanent blindness.
No wonder the 10x400 sessions felt pretty hard
Now is time for some rest. I'm prescribed for two weeks of complete rest and taking three different antibiotics, an antiviral drug and Codeine. I hope we can set some running goal after I have completely recovered.

heck gjoko .. this sounds awful
please take care of yourself and don't even consider the thought of running for now
here's to you getting well soon

Hjelloh!
I'm back in business. The antibiotics have worked their magic and seems like I got lucky this time. The virus never reached my optic nerves. Overall I'm feeling much better now. I still have some minor pain due the damaged nerve endings.
I started with few easy runs on weekend. My plan now is to do the 3rd week of the cycle followed by a 4k TT on sunday to see where I stand at the moment.
Hopefully I can start another cycle the week after. I'd then have 2 full cycles before the 10K race on 31st August.

It was a pleasant experience after two weeks of no-go.

Didn't have it in me today. But seems like I haven't lost all my fitness.

nice going, especially considering what you have been through recently
freshen up and let's look to training forward
