Days rest?????

I completed run 2 of week 6 this morning, even thought I lost Laura. I found I was running more steadily and faster without the music. 

Am wondering if I could possibly go for run 3, the full 25 min run, tomorrow as I lost a day from my schedule and so want to get on to the finish. 

Do need the days rest???????

Nope. The non running days are part of the programme and we won't let you graduate without them. So there :-)

Seriously, if you don't get your head round the value of not just running as much as you possibly can as often as you can, you've not got one of the many hidden benefits of getting into running the C25K way.
