Didn't race today as I've got a sore throat and didn't want to risk getting a bad cough.
However I think the coughs due anyway.

What are your remedies/preventions/old wives tales as I want to be well for next weekend.

I skipped racing Barnoldswick today.I felt it coming last week but raced anyway and have struggled to shake it all week.A day sofa surfing today and fingers crossed I'll be back up to speed for the next one.

Rest, eat healthily and drink lots of water. Also try to avoid taking any meds, unless you are so important that you need to struggle into work like a hero and spread it around.

As my grandad used to say; a cold will last a week regardless of if you take any pills or not.

I can never remember if coffee is good or bad for a cough/cold?

Sauna - not sure if it helps but it is a pleasant excuse to sit in a sauna for a while
