Thanks
Thanks for the support guys!
Finally got to the doctor today. The good news is that my blood pressure is fine (110/70). She listened to my heart and said that she could detect a slight murmur (which I didn't know I had) and that it certainly was 'chugging along'. She then sent me off for a blood test to check my iron, so I will have to wait a few days for the results. The best part was that I saw the doctor and then walked up to the pathology and had the blood test all within 30 minutes. Is that a world record?? The other doctor I used to visit could sometimes keep you waiting for over an hour.
I had another easy 6k run when I got home. I have noticed that I seem much more breathless at the moment even though I am taking it easy. Not sure whether to attempt a long run on the weekend. Maybe I'll do 10ks to see how it goes. I'm worried about losing fitness before my race in early June. I got the entry form in the mail the other day and I'm determined to do the half marathon this time.

Glad to see you taking it easy RU. Not that I know about these things - but wouldn't it be better to cop a little lapse in fitness if it means better running in the long term?
Look after yourself.
Good news RU
If it is lack of iron that's the problem then I'd be happy cause by all account that can be remedied.
You wont lose too much fitness if you keep doing little bits.
Hope the results give you a few clues.
