3week setback

1st run for 3 weeks due to a cold & then a vest infection just after completing week 5.

I decided to just go out try running & if struggling then walk felt a bit tight chested but managed 2 miles.

Hopefully I can start week 6 next week.

Well done.

Don't worry about the distance covered. C25k is duratio based and the most effective pace to develop your aerobic base is one at which you can comfortably hold a conversation. Faster is not better.
