Where to start after a week off ill

[Fitat54]

So I finished week8 but have not been well all week so have not run at all. I’m still not 100%. I’m wondering what run to start on once I feel up to it again? Should I go back and maybe do a 20 min run to start ? Any advice?

As stated in the guide to the plan, healthunlocked.com/couchto5... you lose no significant condition in the first two weeks of non running.

After that loss of condition is gradual.

All any of us can do after a lay off is to go out and see what we can comfortably manage, then build back up gently, using C25k or something similar as a guide to weekly increase.
