Ok i did d1 w4 today. really enjoyed it but noticed a pain in right knee cap like it wants to crack. It dosnt hurt while sitting. Could this be a weight thing? As i am over weight and trying to improve my health

It is really difficult to know what the problem could be but in all likelihood it is nothing major to worry about.

Get a bag of frozen peas (or similar) and place it on the affected knee for about 10 minutes and repeat that 3 or 4 times separated by an hour or so, if you can.

See how things are tomorrow.

Thankyou for your reply. The pain is easing now.

There are some stretches on the NHS site to do after a run - they don't take long and should help to keep the aches and pains away. Dunder's advice re icing it sounds good.

Hope it feels better soon!
