Asthma Wk8 R2

I really want to go out and run - next due is Wk8 R2. My chest doesn't feel that great and I'm coughing more. Wondering whether to just go or rest up. So frustrating as my asthma is not normally a problem. :-(

Mines been bad since before Christmas. Couldn’t even change the beds without getting out of breath. I rested then went out this morning. Had to use my inhaler. I feel drained but glad I did it. Try it but don’t push it. Good luck

Gosh that sounds bad, hope you're feeling better now? Thanks, well I have to take the dog out anyway. It's weird because it's not normally an issue. I suppose I can always run walk if needs be. Well done you!

You can do it - as RedIsBack says, take your time. Or as my former driving instructor used to say, “When in doubt, slow down !” Happy running 😀
