The state of Pete
I've been unwell, and will continue to be unwell for a while. This is an account of where that unwellness is at.

Wrote about my illness. 72.peteashton.com/the-state-of...
This took me a couple of weeks to write and partly in lieu of me being able to stay in touch with a number of friends and family. Chronic fatigue is a fucking arse, but I'm slowly learning how to manage it.

Recovery day. I suppose the goal now is for there to be no more recovery days, once I find my activity baseline. Can’t say I’ll miss them.
