Hey Gang,
Well, here it is, cold November rain...and along with the rain comes a stuffy (and somehow at the same time) runny nose.
At times like this, what do you do? Do you swim anyway?
Is there some kind of guideline that says, swim if the cold is from the neck up (like in running)?
Seeing how I just had 4 weeks out, and this is the kick off week to tri training, I'd hate to not swim...but don't want to make myself sick longer.
What do ya'll think is the best thing to do?
xo-jerrycat :rolleyes:
I agree with sparx35. If you're sick, best to rest and recover. Also, IMO, I strongly believe that swimming when you are sick is RUDE. Think of all the snot and germs coming out of your nose. Yes, there is chlorine, however, when you're huffing and puffing in your lane after a long set in a crowded lane, you're most likely going to spread your sickness. Please stay home.
