Well, it's Monday morning. I know Monday mornings are supposed to be bad and that very few actually like Monday mornings, but I used to like them. This morning, as with the last two Mondays, our first task of the day is a an 8 mile cross-country jog. Call me weird if you want but I enjoy doing cross-country.
However, due to medical reasons, they are not ready to allow me to participate. All because of a chest infection at the end of December that went wrong and turned into a case of Bronchitis. Which basically means that my lungs became inflamed and it was hard to breathe. I have been given an inhailer to help with the symptoms if they get bad, which thankfully they've been ok. But the school refuses to let me join the running untill atleast the start of February, at which time I will be put under a controlled fitness test.
In fact, I haven't had much problem with my breathing since I finished the course of anitbiotics, untill last night that is. It was quite scary. Just walking from the shower rooms back to the dorm room (all of about 50 meters) I became a bit breathless. For those who don't know what it is like to become breathless, I can tell you it is not a pleasant experience. Tie that in to the fact that I couldn't find my inhaler straight away, I started to panic. Which I don't think I need to tell you, didn't help in the slightest.
This is a huge set back for me. So close to my fitness test. If I fail this fitness test, I may be excused from Gym class altogether. They also may make me seek further medical advice from the doctors, and I hate going to the doctors. Sitting for upwards of an hour in a room full of sick and possibly contagious people can't be good for anyone. I guess we'll just have to see what the next few weeks bring.
