W6R2. Does it count?

[Grannyasbo]

I should have done this W6R2run on Tuesday.... but I had a bit of a hangover (got to live down to the name) so didn’t run Tuesday.

Then someone turned the heat right up Wednesday and Thursday and I figured a novice 62 year old runner should be a bit careful in this heat. So didn’t go running.

But this evening the clouds rolled in, the heat dropped and I went out running. And it rained. Hurrah. Beautiful cooling run 🐌.

I was worried that after a four day break it would be really hard to do the run. But it wasn’t too bad at all. So question is can I consider this run done and go on the the last run of week 6 on Sunday even though I’ve had such a long break between runs?

Great job... and it’s a big yes from me!

[samejeans Graduate]

I echo the others: absolutely! You’re doing great!

[TotalNewbie1 Graduate]

Yes you can! If you take more time between runs it really doesn’t matter in my opinion, well unless it is weeks!

[IannodaTruffe Mentor]

Well done.

As explained in the guide to the plan, C25k weeks don't have to coincide with calendar weeks.

[Workingathome Graduate]

Yes! It was very sensible not running in the heat and 4 days doesn’t count as a long break. Keep moving on you’re doing great!

[Belushi Graduate]

Yes of course, we all need an extra day or two's rest every now and then

[Gannet1 Graduate]

Absolutely! According to IannodeTruffe’s post, you don’t start to lose your fitness levels until after a 2 week break, so go for it and enjoy! 😄🏃‍♀️🐢

[Newbie59 Graduate]

Absolutely, you did it, doesn't matter how many rest days you took.
