Hi,
had an above-normal temperature for about 4 weeks (37.5) compared to my normal 36.4 ish. Started with just 1 day of sore throat and ear ache, otherwise no symptoms, needing a bit more sleep than normal.
Temp is in the last couple of days down to 37.1 which is close enough to the official normal range, although elevated for me.
Doc did a FBC couple of weeks ago - haven't got the results, he said he'd call if there was anything relevant.
I decided I wouldn't run while temp was above 37...but I'm getting itchy feet now it's at 37.1 ;-)
Any comments? Run, not run?
Thanks, HH

I'd get back to your doctor asap if i were you.
...and yes V'rap, I realised after I posted I should say "should" rather than can....but to be honest if you'd seen me take part in a race, you might want to reconsider whether "can" is possible too :-)
ho hum, guess it's knitting socks during the formula 1 tomorrow again then! (races are good for long runs on the plodmill)
