In a bad condition....Outbreak....

I had a cold perhaps and couldn't run for 4 days...
But from today I'm getting better and better. Maybe I will be able to run tomorrow.
Of course my cold is common cold and very slight.

Yesterday our hospital staffs got an alert about swine influenza from the goverment.

* WHO declares public emergency of international concern

* All countries urged to be vigilant for unusual flu cases

* More info needed before decision on pandemic alert phase

Outbreaks of swine flu in humans in Mexico and the United States have the potential to cause a worldwide pandemic.

This means there is a risk of the new disease spreading to other countries.

We have to be on high alert for unusual patterns of disease and any rise in flu-like cases or severe pneumonia.

The new H1N1 flu strain is a mixture of swine, human and avian flu viruses which has killed up to 80 people among more than 1,000 suspected cases in Mexico.

Hasetune 30km trailrun race

I attended Hasetune 30k with a resident of my hospital.
At first we forgot to change the trains and went to wrong lines in the morning!
Returned in a hurry and we could reach the race place in time.
It was a little hot but nice day to run a trail!
~happening~
I found a runner on the ground and he fainted.
The vital sign "pulsation and breathing" was no problem and his airway was kept.
After 5 or more minutes later, he was getting more and more alert but there was amnesia. He couldn't remember who he came with or when he started.
We(two firefighters, a clerk of hospital and I) stayed with him until official supporters had come and then we restarted. There were more than thirty minutes.
But from it we could passed a lot lot of runners and I had a illusion that I became much firster!!?
After that I could enjoy the race and finished it in a smile!

He finished the first trailrun race.

Today's reward for me!

The last day before Hasetune 30km
