Update - Stress Fracture

Hello all,

Made my first steps back to running after meeting with my physio last week.

I did the University Parks parkrun and volunteered for setup/course check. I did 1K walking as a warm-up and then took the remaining 4K as instructed: 1 min run (jog)/2 min walk. Had a great podcast and completed the course with no issues.

So I'm thrilled to be getting back out there, slowly, and before the New Year!!

All the best!!

He is indeed...

I think I may use the C25K intervals to ramp back up...next 90s run/90s walk.
