"running leisurely for 20-30mn" is not hard work, so I guess you won't have a hard time recovering from it, if at all. OTOH a real challenging workout requires a recovery period, since it causes some "damage".
Looks like the body has trouble fighting off a disease while recovering from hard work. But no physical activity at all has a debilitating effect. It makes sense.
In my experience I never had trouble fighting a disease when I work out hard; I guess it has something to do with a better diet and better sleep quality.
