Oranges (pure vitamin C), and soup, and lots of water help shoot anything in my system when I start coming down with a cold. Hopefully that helps...Oh, and main component of all of that is to rest :)

alright Great Eastern Run - Half Mara... 13.1 mi 02:27 11:15 pace
Very hot and sunny which most of the field weren't expecting. Nice course, flatish. Upset to see so many runners require medical attention. Thoughts and prayers go to runner I tried to help.
