Just wanted to say a big thanks to the many people who advised me to rest and recover when my knee felt a bit fragile last week.
I was on a high from running 9k and a lovely, easy feeling 5k and was so keen to try and run further or faster. Luckily I was unanimously told to rest and after 9 days I ventured out yesterday for a 5k. I wanted to set an achievable goal so I didn’t feel too gutted but I managed to do 6.5k without any trouble. knee seemed fine so fingers crossed the rest saw it off entirely.
Thanks again for the good advice!
