Exhaustion (I started sleeping after runs), chest pains, hair loss? anyone else have experience of pushing yourself a bit too far?
Not to that extreme, but listen to your body, especially after an illness. Sounds like you have some very clear signs that you should be easing back in more slowly.

Running puts a real strain on the body - and that doesn’t just manifest in tired legs!
Sounds to me like you could benefit from dialling it down, eating well, sleeping well and if inactivity gets you twitching then a swim session is probably a good idea.
It’s a stressful time dude, keep running fun 🙂

I think I've been overdoing it with running post Covid. My legs are fine, and my lungs are now ok, I seem to be running well, with no tightness or injury - so, I can pretty much just keep going 10k, 20k, 30k, whatever.
But as of late, things haven't been feeling right. Exhaustion (I started sleeping after runs), chest pains, hair loss? anyone else have experience of pushing yourself a bit too far?
Short term plan - wind my neck in, and start eating better.
