Inauspicious Start

Over the weekend I have developed a cold and I'm feeling miserable. This has thrown a bit of a spanner in the works of my renewed commitment to getting fit. At this point breathing is a bit of a challenge, running, or riding, is completely out of the question. I suppose it's a good sign that I'm feeling disappointed in this turn of events. I'm consoling myself with the knowledge that the average cold doesn't last more than a week and a bit so this is merely a delay, not an end to my plans. While I'm stuffed up and stiff I'll be focusing entirely on stretching, and if the weather is fine perhaps a bit of walking: just to re-establish the habit of getting out every day.
On the dietary front, instead of the 7 day detox kick start soup I am going for a hot chicken soup. Since my throat is so sore that swallowing hurts, soup for a week has an unanticipated appeal.
