How about that statement coming out of a politician's mouth?? What I do know is that a majority of my runs are 90+ minutes and I am very rarely sick. Even when my entire family is sick for a week I never get the slightest cold. I attribute this to my diet but have zero proof. The rare occasion that I have a stuffy nose it seems to be gone by the time my run is over.<BR/><BR/>Now watch, my Sunday blog post will be about how sick I got this weekend.Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15849269818759114691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9127193214128884628.post-27061956877564002832008-03-14T10:50:00.000-05:002008-03-14T10:50:00.000-05:0050K tomorrow at Afton?

On the same ticket...any run lasting longer than 90 minutes actually makes your immune system dip a little bit.<BR/><BR/>Anecdotally, I often feel like I "run" my way out of colds.<BR/><BR/>I'm debating afton tomorrow...i wonder if it will be a skating rink.keithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06710017872045904515noreply@blogger.com
