Coronavirus halts C25K

I was going to do week 5, run 3 today. But my daughter an NHS support worker, was sent home from work last night, coughing and a high temperature. She's been tested today, but it means I have to isolate upto 14 days, depending on the results, which we should have within 24 hours. Typical 🙄

That doesn't sound too good Wobbly runner, it puts your cancelled run nothing compared to the possibility of your daughter contacting Covid 19. I just hope that the test that she has had comes back negative and all she has is a bad cold.

I'm redoing C25K, I did Weeks 4 and 5 running round the house. I don't especially recommend it. Worth a thought though if you are looking at the full 14 days (and you don't become unwell)

Oh sympathy to you. 😘 I hope your daughter gets better quickly.

The running will wait for you. 😄

Meanwhile what can you do inside to keep up your fitness? Steps workouts at the bottom of the stairs? Some sort of dance fitness?

There’s lots online to choose from.

We will be waiting to cheer when you return - & you can cheer on others too. 😄
