Sick period

So I've been sick for last week. I did friday pool over a week ago and on the saturday I felt cold coming. After that I've had to drop all training all together until today. I did my regular sunday pool training. I still feel it in the lungs so I did easy 60mins with few 50m's just to try it out. I've come back technique wise pretty much and I keep hitting my knees at the bottom of the pool and the relaxation is pretty much gone. I do hope to get back on track soon as possible, but I already know that getting back too hard after being sick is not a good idea.

We had nice weekend just now doing some pretty intensive yardwork. We installed some drain pipes and started building yatsuhashi-style board walk at the backyard. We had some friends over to help with the work and we did some intensive cooking together. I've been studying the ramblings of David Chang and his Momofuku style. We tried some chicharron, pork belly buns, ribs slathered with honey sesame dressing, ginger-scallion noodles and some shabu-shabu. If this wasn't enough, we baked some sourdough bread at wood heated oven. I don't know which was more work: the heavy yardstuff or the cooking. I was dead tired after the day. Everybody had good time and that's what's most important.

Well, having flu is thing of autumn. You get sick two, three times a year and you just have to deal with it. I hope I can jump back to training track. It's getting pretty cold evenings, so I am thinking of including some weightlifting to the training regiment instead of running.
