Advice needed

[Melons1965]

So I was doing so well, completed W9R1 and all set to graduate but then became ill ☹️

I had a 3 day migraine so I've not been running for 9 days in total.

I feel like I need to get going again but unsure whether to go back to previous weeks and which week do I go back to?

Any advice gratefully received 😁

Hi there. Hope you're feeling better now.

I just returned from having a 9 day break also and I just carried on with the next run that I was due to do and I had no problems at all.

So get back out there and give it a try. You'd be surprised that your fitness probably hasn't declined much at all, if any. Good luck.

You won't have lost much, if any, condition in that time. So long as you are feeling well now, I would pick up where you left off.

Enjoy the home straight.

I missed a full week after week 7 and thought I’ll try week 8 and see how I go. It was fine

I missed a week before my graduation run but it was fine. Go for it. You will be fine.

Hi, as others have said just continue forward onto w9r2 and I'm sure you'll be fine but remember to post and let us know how you're doing

Thank you all for your replies, I'm going to give W9R2 on Sunday morning and see how I go.

I'll let you all know 😁

Ooh, hope your lots better now, those migraines are just so horrid. Just keep going where you left off. Maybe do a good warm up first with some power walling and then just slowly jog to your own pace. Good luck.

Just had a seven day break after first ParkRun due to lacking equipment to run safely in the dark (and other spurious excuses). Forced myself out today (ok-after reading this thread). Completed second ParkRun (better than the first). You'll be great.
