Repeat a run?

[Lelecon]

Just finished week 4 run 3 and this was the first time I managed it without stopping 🎉 (mainly due to outer calf pain in previous runs). Should I repeat 1 more time before moving on to week 5?

No... why? You did it... carry on... keep it really slow and really steady. Every single run is making you stronger.

Make sure on rest days you get in some other non-impact exercise to help with strength and stamina too; you need that to help you as you move onwards..your legs are not enough on their own

Well done you

Thank you! 😊

No -- I won't tell if you won't just go on to week 5!

Are you stretching before and after you run? What about your trainers, how old are they?

[Lelecon in reply to LeeU]

Not been stretching but will add that in. Only got trainers in August and tried to get ones with as much arch support as poss. Am seeing podiatrist next week so hopefully get new inserts to help with my wobbly steps.
