Did it this morning. Actually, I had to as went out last night and did the shopping I had promised myself only after w5r3 done. I am so in awe of this programme. Would never have dreamt five weeks ago that I could run for 20 mins. Any tips for a slight twing on the inside of my right knee?

Well done! Such a boost to get that one done. Not being a medical expert I can't comment specifically on the cause but I do have dodgy knees most likely down to tightness pretty much everywhere in my legs. I try to do lots of stretches like hamstring stretches which seem to help me. I also use therapy balls to roll out my tight thighs and calves.
There's some stretching options here which might help: nhs.uk/Livewell/c25k/Pages/...
If it continues it might be worth getting it checked out though.
Thanks for that. Will definitely give those a go. Like the sound of the therapy balls!
