It has been a while since I wrote on my blog. I have been to the other side of HELL and back with COVID-19. It hit me extremely hard and I really suffered with it. It has been more than a month now since I have recovered, and even though the doctors say they cannot find anything wrong with me, I still do not feel 100% normal. I still get winded easily and my heart starts racing like crazy. Some mornings I just cannot get out of bed. I have started getting back to running, but I have found it very difficult. Last week I ran a 5K time trial. My time was 37:27. Much of which was walking. When I run, my heart starts pounding and my chest hurts and I have difficult breathing, so I have to stop and walk. Today my goal was to run 1 mile without stopping. Unfortunately, I was only able to go three laps around the track before I had to stop. I walked and ran some until I got 3 miles today. I will take a couple of days off to rest, and will try this again. For those who take this virus lightly, please don't. I know that some and maybe even most have only few problems, but some like me get it very hard. So please do what you can to stop the spread. Wear a mask and avoid crowds. |
