Whoops! I’ve messed up the system!

12 Replies

I was due to do week 5 Run 1 this morning, but I’ve just realised that I accidentally clicked on the week 5 Run 2 podcast when I was on my way through the front door 🙄 So basically, I’ve accidentally skipped run 1!

What do I do now? I didn’t find it too strenuous... it was absolutely fine! So do I go back to run 1 on Monday, or do another run 2??? Help!

Well done, I’d say pretend you did run 1 in your 😴

Thank you. So are you suggesting I go straight on to run 3 or do another run 2? I’m not sure. I don’t want to cause any problems later on?!

Your issue is because you have a week of 3 different runs. I would maybe just repeat your 5 8 5 8 run before going onto the 5 20 5 but at the end of the day it's up to you, nobody but you knows what you've done. W6r3 longer block of running then 46r1 and run2 go back to intervals. Relax and enjoy

Thank you. Yeah that’s what I was thinking too 👍🏼

We did that one week and so the next run we just did the missed run, i’m not sure if you get your graduate thing at the end if you miss runs so made sure all of them were done

Thank you. I definitely won’t miss out a run before moving on!

Don't worry about that, run run 1 next run then two days later run 3😉

Well done for getting out. I’d just repeat W5 R2 next time and you’ll be fine.

Thank you. That’s what I was thinking too 👍🏼

Easily done.

I would recommend running the same run again, before moving onto W5R3.

Thank you! That’s what my gut feeling is too 👍🏼
