It's that time of year - besides the holidays - the head cold season. A recent article in the New York Times discusses whether to exercise or not when you have a cold. It presents results of a study which showed that a head cold did not impair overall exercise performance. Nor did exercising when you have a cold affect symptoms and recovery time. Fortunately, I maybe only get one cold a year, and have always tried to keep exercising albeit at a moderate level. At least mentally I always felt better.
