I agree--if it's just a stuffy nose and a little cough due to post-nasal drip, sure, run if you want. But if I've got a chest cough or congestion, a fever, or body aches, I would not run. Get some rest and stay hydrated!

If it's neck and above, run. Below the neck or fever, don't run.

I'm supposed to run the cherry blossom 10 miler tomorrow. I have been miserable all day with a cold. I'm wondering if I should run it tomorrow or should I just bow out. It is nearly 1 a.m. I have to get up in 4 hours...and cannot get much sleep, due to nasal congestion and body aches. I really want to run the race, but I don't know if it's wise.
