Running After COVID-19

Grateful for every step after recovery — At first it was just a tickle in my throat. It was a minor annoyance, like clearing my throat wasn’t possible. That turned into a persistent cough that I couldn’t shake for a few days. Other than that, I felt fine. I went out for a 12-mile run despite the…

Preventing the Next Pandemic

It’s not too early to learn the lessons of COVID — This is the first book I could finish since COVID. It’s not the first book I thought I wanted to read, especially after our family got COVID.
