Posted by: | Comments
The German tennis player, Tommy Haas, number 17 worldwide, announced Tuesday that he contracted the H1N1 virus, swine flu, but that he’s hoping to resume his training very shortly because he is almost cured, according the German Bild paper.
“It all started last week, during the Stockholm tennis tournament. I had a sore throat, I had fever and I was sweating at night,” said the 31 year old.
“For three days I did not come out of the hotel room. My doctor from Munich consulted me and the diagnosis was positive. It was a complete shock for me,” he added. Tommy Haas plans to start back his training soon because he no longer presents any symptoms of the flu.
“When you are in a good shape, as I am now, you heal relatively fast of this flu”, said Haas.
Nearly 30,000 germans contracted the A/H1N1 virus and 6 deaths were reported. Authorities asked the citizens to get vaccinated.

So, the question: how much/far should a tennis player jog for?
