Ooh thank the higher good!!!

I managed to get a run in this morning,

A very slow 5K , but I can't tell you how pleased I am to have ran and no pain,

Yesterday I consentrated on yoga for legs.. after hurting my knee stupidly jumping rope on Tuesday 😭

It's really put my HM training back a week or so..but I'm trying not to mind so much, just the glee of knowing I'm back is enough...for now,🙏

Happy Running all 🙌

At least the knee didn't bother you in your run. As for the running, slow or fast: you ran a 5K and that's what matters!

[sparky66 Graduate10 in reply to Hidden]

Ooh I intended Running it very slow, just caucious slowly slowly catchy monkey 🐒 🤣

Fantastic news! 😃👍 Well done on that 5k, it sounds like everything's back on track 🥳🤸‍♀️🎉

[sparky66 Graduate10 in reply to Beatlesforever]

Here's hoping 🙏 itching for a longer run but think I will do a strength training day tomorrow, maybe a 5K afterwards..rest day Sunday and see if I feel ok for a longer run by Monday 🤞

[Beatlesforever Graduate10 in reply to sparky66]

If you're also doing strength training and since you're running on consecutive days maybe go for a shorter run tomorrow? Just in case (I'm always on the side of caution!) Whatever you decide, good luck Monday! 💪🤞

Happy running to you sparky66, I am so happy that you are back after your knee injury.

[sparky66 Graduate10 in reply to AlMorr]

Ooh thanks AlMorr 🤗Just finished my strength workout and feeling back to fitness.. really looking forward to getting a longer run in Monday 🙏

[Billy5]

Well done

[Run46 Graduate10]

Brilliant, really puts a smile on your face after a forced break doesn't it, oh the relief 😊

I can imagine you have to be careful with skipping as it seems pretty high impact, much like running can be 🤷‍♀️

[sparky66 Graduate10 in reply to Run46]

Skipping was going well for a few sessions, had researched,.. been running for 9 months and thought all was fine.. only took three jumps that morning and I knew I'd done something.. just a little twinge but still put me out of running for a few days 😭I'd warn anyone to be very cautious 🙏

[Run46 Graduate10 in reply to sparky66]

Don't think I'd risk it as the aches I get running are in my lower legs...don't want to risk aggravating my shins/achilles.

If you enjoy it, maybe you could try doing it on grass, find a mossy spot & hope it's bouncy 🤷‍♀️🤞

[Dups Graduate10]

So pleased you have managed your 5k without pain. It’s like dipping your toes in water and testing the temperature. So you slow 5k was probably the sensible thing to do. It’s rubbish when you can’t do what you want to do. But today is definitely a positive run. Brilliant 👍

[sparky66 Graduate10 in reply to Dups]

Hiya Dups, positive it certainly was 😊Really itching for that longer run.. Monday or Tuesday I reckon I will give it a go 🙏

You'll still be flying high after your sub 30 5K 💥
