running while sick?

go run for 5-10 minutes. if you feel like crap, just turn around and go hhome. make sure to bundle up, and if you have a nasal spray to help open up your airways, do that. take some asprin an hour before your run, give it time to kick in. bundle up your upper body, and see how you feel.

Try a run and if you can't, try to manage a walk. If anything, focus on getting better!

I have been fighting a cold for two weeks, I went to go run on the 2nd day of my cold and during the process I felt weak but I continued to run, by the time I got home I felt like crap, my cold got worse, and I thought I was going to pass out. I went to the doctor and he basically told me that when your sick like that, the best thing you can do for your body is rest. Especially if you have been fighting to keep your temp down and are suffering from headaches. At the same time, everyone is different, another friend of mine suggested I go ahead and run because when she was sick she ran and it made her feel better and she actually sweat the cold out.

The point I am making is that everyone is different, if you start running and you feel weak, stop and go home and rest.
