Failed to do W5R3

[scotinexile]

Gutted. Went down with a bug. Feeling washed out. Will I be able to repeat run 2 on Wednesday and carry on from there? Will the podcast let me do this?

Oh dear.... not 'f***' but full of yukkieness! Feel better and repeat... not sure which app you are using ?

If you have a bug, do yourself a favour, and don't run.

It's not surprising that you struggled. Wait until you feel well and positive and go back out to do the same run.

That is the one you need to beat, not the previous one. No need to go back.

You only fail in this process if you head back to the couch.

You will do it. This is a mental battle, so believe in yourself and go as slow as you need to.

Oh no! Look on the bright side though, you didn't miss W5R3 because you couldn't manage it. I'm no expert but I would say give yourself a few days rest until you fully recover. Good luck, and well done for getting this far. I'm mid-week 4 at the moment.

not fail, maybe an alteration of Mummycav's post...

First Attempt ... Incapacitated, Lurgy?

Get well soon! You are allowed to be ill. And yeah, if you completed run 2 then the next one is still run 3, listen to IannodaTruffe .

Yes you can, you didn't fail you were poorly. We don't eff on here, well we do but not that kind of effing....

Only ever practice and the fact that you even did something when not well is amazing. It's not called C25K WAB (standing for With A Bug).....

Have a nice rest and get back to strength and then go out, when you're in better condition health wise.

No one advocates running with an injury and being poorly is much the same thing, your energies are depleted and it affects your running.

Get well soon...👍

Sorry to hear you've been laid low by a lurgy - to my mind, the fact you headed out for a run when I'll shows how committed you are. Let your body fight off the bug and then give it another go - we're all wishing you well 😊
