Haven’t run since last Saturday. Due to kids being ill and kindly passing it on. Oh how I wish I hadn’t taught them to share 😂😂.

Going to try a run tomorrow all being well. The last two runs I did were for 30 mins then 15/2/10. Do you think a run of 10/2/10 would be a food place to start and then maybe try a longer run on Tuesday? X

Oldfloss is right. You may even find you come back stronger ! Embrace that inner snail and aim to enjoy it, not thrash it. You’ll be fine x

I managed to get out the running gear tonight. My last run was on the 1/12 and ran for 30 mins. Didn’t want to push it tonight so downloaded the 25 minute I don’t want to run run from the Nike app. I did it and still had some left in the tank. Managed 3.3km too. Happy days x
