Fortunately, I can tolerate aspirin and Ibuprofen and I always take the lowest recommended dosage. <br /><br />I'm going to try a run today but I'll go into it with lowered expectations.

A far cry from when I'd get them at work, in private and with no waiting, at my company's medical dept.<br /><br />The affect of the shot last year was a mild headache, soreness at the the injection spot and some running fatigue during the next two days. You'd be fine to get one now.<br /><br />The TOB Supervisor's 5K is on Oct 19. It's not connected with Halloween. However, according to my wife and daughter, the way I dress to run on a normal basis constitutes a costume.

I always try to plan in some rest days after flu shots. I also avoid Tylenol and all other acetaminophen products as they are rough on the liver--they same organ just kicked in the teeth to generate an immune response. <br /><br />But that's just an ICU nurse's perspective.

It truly is liberating, I agree. <br /><br />Flu shot season already? How long did you feel run down last year? Hopefully, just a day or two. Maybe I'll wait until after my marathon to get mine. I hope Walgreens gives you a little compensation for the free advertising! :) <br /><br />Is your Oyster Bay race a Halloween race?
