Week 6 delay

[MissionC25]

Hi everyone. I was elated last Friday when I did 20mins continuously and felt physically really good. Then I got ill. I didn’t get out to run all week until this Friday to do run 1 of week 6 and I struggled. Should I go back and start at week 5 again or just push through? Thanks for advice 🙏

You did the run, so I would say 'move on'

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

W6R1 trips up more people than any other run in the programme.........one twenty minute run does not a runner make..........and it is also your longest overall duration workout to date.

You will be fine to move straight on.

Enjoy your journey.
