W2R2- not sure whether to run tomorrow

Lardybumneedstorun profile image

So my cold has really hit me hard. I barely slept last night.

I really want to run tomorrow as I don't want to lose motivation and momentum. Worried if I don't go ill find excuses to not start back up.

Also concerned about slowly my recovery.

Eeek not sure what to do!

Rest up..feel better..the run..and we will wait...you need to be on par to run..

Take a few days and then run. We will watch for your post in a couple of days...then come looking for you.😉

I’ve got the start of a cold and really felt it on my chest when I finished although felt good when running.

Exactly what Oldfloss said, rest and feel better, read some motivating posts here each day and you will know when you are well enough to run

Heal well

Don’t you worry we will give you a couple of days to get better but then will start to prod you 🤣Seriously it’s far better to rest & run when you well. Takes 2 weeks to lose any fitness. Enjoy some chicken soup & plan some run routes for when you feel better!
