Help me adjust my schedule

[tuggyruns]

So I was hoping to be able to do my long run this morning after getting antibiotics on Sat but I still have some chest congestion that says no way. I was scheduled for 16 this weekend-I missed half of my Wed run (7) and didn't run Thursday.

This week I am scheduled to pretty much run the same schedule as last week with a mile increase on my Wednesday run and 17 on on my long run would you:

A. try to get as much of the long run in today as my body will let me
B. rest today and just repeat last weeks schedule this week?

TIA ladies!

Rest, one missed long run won't kill you.

Definitely B. What is your long run for next week, 18? Going from 16 to 18 is fine. Missing this week's 17 is not a big deal. Let your body rest.

Rest, this run will not break your training. Feel better soon!

Rest. I know it's hard but you will feel better faster.

Thanks ladies for putting my fears at bay that I have completely derailed my whole training plan! Taking it easy today and hoping to be able to do an easy 4 tomorrow.

REST, REST, REST!! I had a nagging cold with fever and the works for over 7 weeks because I couldn't let myself just rest. I was at the same place in my training plan as you are right now. Rest is essential.

Rest!! Rest and don't let your illness get any worse!
