Day 2 week 2

Had to stop running 1 run early as calf muscles giving me a lot of pain ☹ Need to invest in a pair of compression socks and hope they do the trick

You could invest in a foam roller too -they hurt like hell but can work wonders on tight knotty muscles. As a quick fix, you could wrap your rolling pin in a towel and use that instead. Just go on YouTube and see how to use a foam roller for calf pain. Don't do too much though, with a foam roller less is more! Good luck

Are you running too fast? and trudged uphill? Take it steady doing c25k, your body has to get used to running...

Don't know about roller, give calves a gentle massage & rest..😄

Thanks Dave I think I'm possibly going to fast so will slow it down on Sunday and see how I go 👍🏻

Make sure you do your stretches..

Physio told me that a tennis ball was as good as a foam roller....and less awkward to hold yourself up/balance on !!
