No, I will not wear the silly mask. I did have to bail on a 15k race in February because of a case of COVID. I have no idea which strain it was, but it was like a 24-hour virus that happened to last for 7 days. I was able to walk and run (alone) during that time and also work, since I was remote. Maybe the running wasn’t such a good idea, but I did it anyway.
Everything is covid now. The common head cold is extinct. Bronchitis is extinct. Its all covid all the time.
