The basic takeaway seems to be to take it easy for 1-2 weeks, and then ease back into it based on how youre feeling.
Covid is hard on your heart and lungs, and it can take a runner up to 79 days before they're back to normal. In the meanwhile, you may find yourself breathing differently/inefficiently, your resting heart rate will be higher and will go up faster when you exercise, and it will mess up your sleep and youll need more sleep than you used to. And trying to force yourself to perform at your pre-covid levels will apparently make things worse.
