I am due to start Week 8 Run 1 but i am currently on my 3rd rest day as I have felt really under the weather the past few days. I have Hashimotos (only diagnosed in Sep) and have felt really well since starting my levothyroxine. My worry is that I am going to have to start programme all over again- how many rest days can you have before losing what you have progressed to in programme. Really praying that I wake up ready to go tomorrow!!!
Struggling :(: I am due to start Week 8 Run... - Couch to 5K
Struggling :(

Try not to worry and hopefully, this is a blip and you will be heading out soon

It is generally considered to be about a fortnight before you can notice any significant drop in condition. Even then, it is a slow regression.
Don't worry, you will be fine. Don't pressure yourself.
If you are takin your thyroxine that should not be an issue. Have a rest then go again.
Not what you're looking for?
