Do your run for me too

I've just realised it's now over a week since I last went on a run (W5R2). Middle of last week I came down with what turned out to be tonsillitis and had to spend several days in bed. Am back at work today, but definitely not well enough to be running again. Before I started C25K I would never have thought I'd be saying this, but I'm really sad I can't run. So anyone running today, please run for me too πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ Then, in a very roundabout way, I can feel like I'm not missing out as much πŸ™‚ Fingers crossed I'll be up to trying a gentle run by the weekend 🀞
