Personally, no... I’d take an extra rest day. I have no specific experience with sciatica, but when I know for sure a run will suck or hurt, I don’t run.

No, if you run with Sciatica it will just make it worse, have a rest from running until your back is no longer sore, hopefully it won't last too long and you can get back to running.

Not what you're looking for?
