Did week 5 run 3 on Thursday but haven't run since...

Due to kids being off school, late nights, torrential rain and now a real horrible on my chest cough and cold....tell me, can I pick up from week 6 with a week off? Or do I need to do that run again?

For the record, it was ok. Despite the last ten minutes being entirely uphill. I survived it!!!

Well done that is brilliant! 😊 I don’t know enough about running to answer the last bit but I hope you feel better soon

If your chest is involved in your illness don't even think about running until your symptoms have gone. Then start running slowly. You should be ok with w6r1 as it's back to intervals (and for many a difficult run) and see how you go. Don't be tempted to run before you are fully recovered. General rule is - above the neck, OK to run: below the neck sit it out. I'm doing just that at the moment, been a week since my last run 🙁. Hope you are better very soon.
