Ill health/hydration?

I have had a few incidents of poor health recently experiencing a couple of colds and rota virus recently. Having a 15 month son these things seem to go around the three of us of late.

I felt ok day before yesterday so went for a 30 mile ride. I struggled like mad at 25 miles onwards and hit a bit of a wall not to mention headwind.

I had a banana about 1hr15mins in and a flap jack shortly after so not thinking nutrition is the issue with having poached egg and beans on toast about an hour and 30 mins before aswell.

When I returned I soon felt rough and fluey again with achy skin and headache and a bit of a temperature which makesme wonder about hydration only having 1 large bottle of weak sugar free cordial maybe not replacing the electrolyte that I've lost cycling just shy of two hours.

Any ideas guys it seems like one thing after another right now

    a virus can stay with you for a long time even when you feel fine it's still there and anything but gentle exercise will bring it on again.
