Poorly :(

I’ve never really counted myself as a runner... I’ve graduated the c25k and done a park run, even ran three times a week, every week for over three months now.

Today is the first day I’ve not ran due to being poorly, my god the guilt I feel is unreal!! Who knew!! Baring in mind I can’t even walk upstairs without being breathless at the moment (damn asthma!) but, i actually missed not running.

Trip to the docs and steroids later... I’m hoping I may be able to do a short run on Wednesday.

Oh... I’ve signed up for a 10k too!! I won’t be running it all... no way!

Slow, steady... feel better and then head out when you are ready... the runs wait.. always x

Thank you! And I’d give anyone the same advice!! I know you’re absolutely right and I need to look after me!x

You do... you are worth it!

Oh, get well soon and go for that run when you are feeling well. It is better to make sure you are properly recovered than taking risks in this weather! Before you know you will be training again for the 10K!! 🔟🏃‍♀️ When is it happening, by the way?

The 10k is in May. I’m happy to walk and run it as I’m defo not a 10k runner but there’s a couple of us from work doing it.

I’ve a 5k beginning of feb so need to be better for that! X

Thank you XX

Nice goals! I am sure you will be fine! Good luck with the doc!!!

Get well soon!

I’m not sure how you define “runner” but you’re graduated, running regularly and hitting parkrun... that’s a runner surely!

Hope you can get out and have a great short run on Wednesday.

Haha! I suppose you’re right when you put it like that!! I’m not a natural runner then maybe! It’s been hard but I’m starting to like it and missed it today!x thank you x
