Not sure what the situation is with this?
I failed my 1st attempt end of November for being pretty ill and over confident (lesson learned) and attempted it anyway as I didn’t *text deleted* delay it and come across as not motivated.
The 8 weeks time finished end of January and I know you have to take the pjft within 28 days of the medical being passed so I don’t know if it’s the same for a 2nd attempt? As the 28 days will be the middle of next week.
I have overdone the running side of things since and actually haven’t ran for nearly 2 weeks now as someone I see regularly in the gym is a physio and said it was more than likely shin splints which was handy as I didn’t *text deleted* get it checked out but the last run I did do I had to stop after a mile as they we’re becoming very sore and even sore to touch which wasn’t good at all.
I know myself this is because I was running everyday wether it was on a treadmill or outside so I have myself to blame there.
I tried contacting afco yesterday but they wasn’t available so I’m not quite sure what happens now or what happens?
Do I have to redo the medical if it goes over the 28days? Or if I don’t take it does it class as a fail and I have to wait another 8 weeks for a 3rd and final attempt?
I waited this long just to see how i would be physical wise so just sein if I’m able to defer it till a later date when I know I’m 100% I don’t want to come across as not motivated and go to a 3rd attempt at the same time.
