Getting back on it.

[Boo29]

Hi fellow C25Kers,

For various reasons I’ve been unable to train for the last month but now things are settling down and I’m ready to get back on the case.

I had completed Week5 run2 before my hiatus and I’m wondering which week to go back to or should I start all over again?

Any advice gratefully received.

Hi Bee,

First few days are a bonus, by end of the second week you’re about where you were at the last run, nothing lost. Losing the fitness is gradual, so you won’t have lost very much. You may well be able to start where you left off. Run 3 is 20 minutes, so I’d say give it a go... it’s harder to work out if you still have it coming back to intervals... as you have a straight run then you’ll know exactly. If you don’t complete it you won’t be far short, and in that case I would just repeat it. You can surprise yourself here. Slow and steady.

Hi Boo! Bet you’re happy to be back, and we’re happy to have you! 😀

I think I’d either start where you left off on W5R2, or if you’re feeling good on the day maybe even slow right down and see what happens if you try R3. You’ll more than likely surprise yourself! 😀

Good luck. 🙌

Head out for an Irishprincess jogette and see how you feel... slow, steady, relaxed and enjoy!

Thank you everyone, I’m off out in a wee while, I’m thinking I’ll go for week 5 run 2 and see what happens x
