I know it was a very loooong letter and hence a very looooong post to read... I did consider editing it to be a little shorter...

Glad it was a useful story... a good warning/reminder for us all to listen to our bodies before we exercise...

I think there is some study/research to show that fitness, when linked with weight loss, can be linked to sickness. Stange i know, but its to do with how much reserve our bodies carry to fight infection, and as atheletes get fitter BUT ALSO LIGHTER... they become more susceptible... there is less body mass to fight off those unwanted sniffles etc and it is more likely to turn to a secondary infection because of less body mass, and also because atheletes diet does not help in fighting illness...

Wishing you all wellness and fitness
