I felt very thirsty today. Maybe it was from the blood I gave before lunch. I drank a lot of water at school, aswell as coffee and lemon tea.
I am not going to gym today. I feel really tired. I had only 3 hours sleep last night. My foot is also quite sore today. I could concentrate on my upper body, but I just feel like I want to rest my whole body. When I swam yesterday it felt really tight, and my legs are obviously still feeling the effects of a hard run on Saturday.
It also seems prudent to recharge today, since it is really cold, and suddenly a lot more people are walking around coughing and sniffing.
I will continue to follow the RICE treatment formula in the meantime. I can also follow, interestingly, an anti-inflammatory diet. The information below was sourced from:

An anti-inflammatory diet can decrease discomfort and reduce systemic inflammation and the risk for associated diseases.
An anti-inflammatory diet is based on the following foods:
Include: fresh vegetables and fruits, flax seed meal, flax seed oil, deep water fish, fresh water, organically raised foods
Avoid: sugar, refined white flour products (e.g., pasta and bread), processed foods, fast food, saturated animal fats (red meat and dairy products)
