Been having a load of aches and pains in my hip, back, and neck recently - enough to stop me running :(. Just been out for the first time in 10 days and managed my 5k, same as before the trouble, but with a bit of hip ache. Hope I can move tomorrow.

You might need to do some gentle stretching to get ready for running. I take a daily omega 3 fish oil capsule as my joints were that creaky. I can't do without them now

I run every other day to make life easier. I find if I have a longer break between runs I just can't hack it. I hope you manage to do your run all right. Good luck

It was the guy on the adjoining plot to mine who recommended them to me when he heard my elbows and shoulders creaking when I was watering my veg. My husband was recommended to use them by his GP at about the same time. I get ours from T*sco
