Colds make me slow :0(

So, I haven't written much over the last week. I have been quite ill with a bad cold with ridiculous side effects! I would lay down and feel drunk as the room would spin and I would feel really queasy. 
I didn't do the New Forest race at the weekend because, although I could manage at work (sitting at a desk is not overly demanding, even in a weakened state) I did not feel I could even walk 5 km's let alone run at any kind of speed. 
I will again make my public promise that I will replace my missed 5 km race with at least a 5 miler. 
The good news is that I am pretty much all better. I still have some sneezing and cold symptoms but nothing that will keep me sofa bound. I have to go back to the doctors on Monday as there is still something wrong with my ears but nothing that will keep me down... it does make me slow though. 
I did a 5k yesterday morning which felt ok, my Nike Plus suffered an epic fail so I don't know exactly how far I went or in what time. It was about 30 minutes. 
Tonight was my first night back with Victory and we did a 5 and half miles and I got back in just over the hour... slow but at least I did it. Still faster than I can go on my couch!!!
