About 4 weeks ago I was one run away from completing the programme when I went down with the cold. I got over that and was about to do my final run but I had a problem which meant I ended up in A and E.
That was a couple of weeks ago and today I visited my Doctor who has given me the all clear to resume my activity.
Tomorrow morning I plan to go out for a run. I have also decided to start again at week 1 run 1.
Wish me well. At lest I am 19llbs lighter than when I started last time!

Oh goodness you have had a bit of a time. Glad you e the ok to restart. Well done on the weight loss. You'll soon be through the plan you know what to expect this time. Have fun
Well done for coming back to it! I recently redid the program after 4 months off. I started at W1R1 to see how it went, but I didn't do the entire 27 runs; after each run I thought about how it had gone, how I felt, and then made a decision at that point about which run to tackle next. Some weeks I only did one of the runs, some weeks two of the runs. See how you feel and go with your instinct. Most of all, enjoy!
I did similar to Linda9389 and it worked really well. I started with a Week 1 run and that felt fine so moved onto Week 2 and so on. The week 4 run felt great so I jumped straight to Week 5 Run 3 (20 minutes) and just kept adding minutes until I was back at Week 9. If any of the runs had felt like a strain, I would have repeated them. I definitely felt like I'd lost some stamina but it came back surprisingly quickly. Good luck with it all second time round, I think you will be pleasantly surprised!
