I'm training for NY marathon (my first) and have developed a chest infection. I've been given antibiotics abnd advised not to run until it clears up...Ii should be running 20 miles tomorrow (!!) and am having minor panics about not doing enough. What can I do as a useful alternative??

They say the nearest thing to running is the eliptical trainer in the gym.
Good luck,

But I agree with Pizza man that if you'be been advised not to run, other aerobic exercise may not be the best thing ..
Pack in the fruit and vegetables and be sure to get plenty of sleep.
You have plenty of time to catch up on lost training before the NYCM. Don't take risks with your health now.
Cheers, boring old V-rap.
If you're sick don't run - in fact don't do anything. Take a week off - it won't kill you. Running when you're sick might (kill you).
Sorry to be a scare-monger, but life is short enough as it is - don't risk making it any shorter.
