I’ve got anemia that’s now affecting life and training, so I’m running out of training steam WAY too early (also nauseous most of the time and getting sick during training many days), so honestly after gritting my teeth and getting through Day 1 and 2 every week, the rest of my training has been a mental and physical struggle for a couple of months now. It’s not fun, but it’s correctable, and I’ll live, so hopefully this will all be easier to get done pretty soon! ---
