Was feeling great about the first two runs and now have had a cold with cough for over a week so no run 3 yet. I should have been on track to graduate by end of year but don’t think that will happen now.

Me too, due 7:2 last Friday but not run since last Wednesday due to really bad cold and feeling so run down. Hope to do 7:2 tomorrow night after work. Planned 9:3 for New Year’s Day but that won’t happen now. My philosophy is it doesn’t matter when as long as I do x

Thanks. This time of year I guess colds will get in the way. You’re right, doesn’t matter when, as long as we do it

Don’t worry about it... you’ll improve your health, fitness and life expectancy just as much regardless of the day you run W9R3... get better and come back gently, and just enjoy graduation when it comes.

You have my sympathy Kocelyn. I had the same in week 9. Two weeks heavy cold. I ran week 9 with blocked sinuses but cold was clear. So get well, then you'll finish this thing!
