Hi just finished we 4 which I have done twice as I had 2 wks off with shoulder pains doc thinks is tendinitis never had this before has anyone else had similar problems thanks

Yes! Certainly did. I had to repeat week three as after weeks one and two I could hardly move my head due to neck and shoulder pain so had to stop. I went to the GP as I even had pins/needles down my left side, so was fearing an imminent slipped disc.. or worse! GP 'bonged' all my joints and found no nerve impingement and said I could carry on running. The pains have now completely disappeared, so I put it down to unusual bodily activity!! (i.e. running!). I'm no expert but just get a 'good to go' from the GP maybe?

I had awful shoulder and neck pain by the end of week 2. I realised that every time I was prompted to run I braced myself by lifting my shoulders. Now, the podcast says run and I reply "shoulders," - I relax.
