Wk5 R1 - Still in the game, just!

So Saturday will see me do Wk5 R2 having just completed R1 tonight. Yes today was hard but actually I always felt right from the off that I could get through it. MOM.

Saturday will come and I will be fine I am sure, 8 minutes followed by the second 5 will be tough but again I feel I am running too fast.

I do and have had what feels like a side strain running from the right hand base of my back by my kidney across my side and up into my ribs just under my right breast, I have been running with this for 2 weeks at least. It gets no worse and does not impede my running but does impede my movement at other times. Any ideas? Just had a full lot of bloods done at the GP all clear and much pleasure about my loss of weight all round.

You're doing good. Well done. Have you spoken to your doctor about this pain. Doesn't sound very comfortable. I'd definitely give him a call.
