Cold / Flu - break from training?

    Hi All,

    I'm doing my FIRST Dublin City Marathon in a few weeks.

    Aim = to finish. Trying to follow the Hal Hidgon Novice program.
    Honestly - I'm a few weeks behind - missed a good few of my midweek runs - work stuff etc.

    My longest LSR was 18 miles last weekend.

    I've a cold / flu (not swine :)) with the past 4-5 days - so no runs last 2 evening.
    Feeling a good bit better today, thinking of going for a run tonight.

    So - what do experienced / seasoned runners recommend?

    Should I wait a few more days - be doubly-sure I'm 100% before re-starting?
    Anxious that I don't miss any more training (time is running out to Oct 26th), but don't want to start too early and get sicky again.

    I know this probably very specific to the individual - but I'd love to hear recommendations from experienced runners.

    Rule of Thumb - Sick = X days break from training?

    Thanks
