You have my sympathy, my week 9 was sabotaged by injury then a cold. Don't rush it, get healthy, you don't want a longer layoff, you're doing great

Same as steviej99. Out for 10 days due to non-running injury. Started again at 12 min run- all okay so increased to 24 before doing W9r1 again. Hope all goes well.

The runs will wait... recover from the illness, here’s hoping it’s a 24 hour bug.

Sorry to hear you're under the weather but in the long run (pun intended) even if you take a few days to get properly better you can still finish the programme in 2018 and start 2019 with that 'Graduate' tag next to your name! Good luck!

Not what you're looking for?
