Covid Training Guidelines

 I am on Trail Runner Magazine's email distribution list, and this week, their email contained a link about Covid Training guidelines. Having just taking my first dose of the vaccine, their headline caught my attention.

Reading through the article, I identify with what they were saying. Aches, pains, soreness from running happen far more often that I care to admit, so I didn't think too much about my knees feeling a little more sore than usual. I simply chalked it up to being older and too many miles. Even thou, I wasn't experiencing the same issue last week. After reading the article, I wondered if maybe some of theaw effects that I was feeling were my body's efforts to build Covid immunity. 

Maybe they were and maybe not. 

I wish that I had read the article before taking the first dose. I would probably not been running 20 miles two days after the shot. I would probably have taken a few more easy days. 

I wanted to share this because I know that many runners looking to get their vaccine. I have not seen a lot of literature about the vaccine and runners. So learn all that you can and take a few easy days.
