So 4 years later, we think #running with covid is okay, especially if you were a runner before. Maybe. Anyhow I'm not going to take a 10 to 79 day break.
I have a deal with my body. All parts serve at the pleasure of the heart and brain. Any subcomponent that doesn't want to get with the program can get with the program or f*k off and die.
In other words, no coddling of the lungs or muscles if it costs cardiovascular fitness.
