Just completed week 8! I shouldn't be running until tomorrow but have visitors this weekend so done it today instead. Am chuffed to bits that I managed to complete it, I've struggled with this week! Bring on week 9!

Well done. Please tell me you didn't run yesterday too?

Her Maj is making a serious point.

There was a new c25k graduate on the Bridge to 10k forum the other day, wondering why her shins hurt so much after she ran on consecutive days. Assuming that you were new to running, you are still a beginner and will be for many months yet.

All your enthusiasm is very creditable but could come to nought if you get injured. Often there is little warning.

Well done on the run though.

I know I shouldn't have ran on consecutive days, and i haven't done so up until today, i was so determined to complete week 8 and i thought i would be ok. Although i managed the run with no issues, my shins are starting to hurt a little just now. Lesson learned and I will not do it again!
