Well after calling no joy with W4R3 I took an extra days rest and went out for the start of week 5 was'nt sure how the knee would hold up but was surprised. It is still a bit sore but held out for the three 5 minute sessions. Will take another two days rest and see how run two goes.

Good. I hope you can run it off. Two days off between runs is fine

A very sensible approach. If you need to take even more than two days rest then so be it. There is no hurry.

Hi

Just wondered if you have considered seeing a Physio about your knee ?

Is it a legacy from your time in the Forces ? xxx

More than likely though I suspect I'll get the old flannel of you should look after your joints or try a different form of exercise so might have to sort out the bike and come back to the running later but will see what happens next week

Not what you're looking for?
