Summary

A runner who had long COVID symptoms for about four months as of November 2024, mainly fatigue, exercise intolerance and breathlessness on bad days. They had cut back to careful zone 2 activity only. Symptoms were improving overall, though exercise intolerance persisted. They took magnesium glycinate 200-300 mg and felt a supplement dose they asked about was interfering with their sleep.
