Cold and flu

March 21, 2017Comments Off on Cold and flu

Damn. Just as I’m getting into running again I get a chesty cough and flu symptoms. Seems the #ICANN58 Copenhagen experience has made a few of us ill. I guess it is because we are in an enclosed area for a week and germs flow around and around. Well, keep…
