Oh No!
It's that time of year again, went out running yesterday and was wheezing so bad that I nearly stopped. Tissues were next to useless and my eyes and ears itched sooo bad.
So I'm off to the doctor tomorrow to get dosed up and next time I run I should be rattling with all the tablets I'm taking and I will also have the usual tissue up each nostril just so that you can recognise me.
Oh woe is me, All you fellow sufferers out there, I sympathize, and I'm thinking of you all.

You've said before your doing Peterborough R4L so your probably surrounded by oil-seed rape at the moment which won't help.
Failing that a small amount of vaseline in the end of each nostril (do make sure you can still breath through your nose those) may catch any stray pollen.
I take telfast and it works for me have a good visit to the doctor.
I have only started running these last few weeks. Usually at this time of year I hibernate indoors and don't venture out much. But I'm not going to let some little specks of pollen keep me from my running.
Ice maiden I take Zirtek and Beconase along with a ventolin inhaler for when it's really bad.
Someone told me that it's a big help if you inhale (gently) some boiled and cooled down salted water through your nostrils, I must admit that I did try it last year and decided that probably it was best to just stay indoors away from all the nasty outdoors, it stung a bit and made me choke, but I will try again this year if it helps then it can't be too bad can it?
no more tablets for me
This is the second year that I have been free from hayfever, and I used to suffer badly from beginning of May through to end of August!
Throughout Autumn and Winter I just have some on a slice of toast every morning. Then hey presto....no hayfever!! It's bliss!!!
