Hi,

i completed week 3 while travelling on business. it went well but then my knee

started hurting. i have osteo arthritis and thought ok i will take some time off.

That was 5 days ago should i continue and progress to week 4 run 1?

I plan on using the hotel treadmill.

Thanks,

BL

If your knee has stopped hurting, yes go straight to W4. You may pass Go and collect your £200. But I get 10%.

If the knee persists and you think it is a function of the Osteo Arthritis, rather than just run of the mill starter runner niggles, then as well to consult your health professional.
