So I have been out of running due to a chesty cough for almost three weeks. I was really looking forward to my next runYesterday I started coughing and sneezing all over again so back to where I was three weeks ago.I want to run but don't want to exacerbate the cough and make it worse so I am away from running

longer.

Some of these coughs linger don't they? Just look after yourself, the runs will wait 😁

Same here-I’ve been off with flu for nearly two weeks. It’s frustrating but you’re (we’re!) definitely doing the right thing by recovering first. Get well soon! Sending hugs and solidarity! ❤️‍🩹

I feel you. Had to stop in October, in Lanzarote! Throat infection . (So bad that drinking beer was a chore). No back to running when the, 'The cough' , hit. Not been out for ages! Patiently waiting. No point in going off too soon.

As SueAppleRun says, "The run will wait".
