I had to abort the run at 20 minutes when I got a pain in my knee. I tried to go on but it wasn't happening. I'll have to see if I can have another go on Friday.

RICE..then see how you go ? Not worth really injuring yourself at this stage :)

How frustrating. As the ever-wise Oldfloss says though, it really isn't worth risking injury. The c25k is just phase 1 of a very long plan :-) so patience and graduate strong on Friday.

As ever, slow and steady...

Oh poor you Plop, that must be disappointing for your last one, but as the wise ones say, better to listen to your body and get it right, rather than start your Post-graduation journey on the IC. Hope the knee is better quickly 😞
