Withdrawal symptoms

So it turns out winter, commuting, a young baby, snow and two weeks of a bad cold are a bad combination and its now been more than a month since my last run with no prospects for another until next weekend at the earliest.

My brother recommended I get into a winter-fat mindset and just deal with it. Is he right?

Side-effects of this withdrawal appear to be slight podgyness and tiredness. I don’t like it… but there’s not enough hours in my day, as I haven’t found a cure for sleep as yet…
