Week 7 tomorrow?

Evening all!

Tomorrow I plan to kick off week 7. Because of my slightly dodgy right knee I've given it an extra day between runs, so hopefully I'll be good to go, as I'm desperate to get back out there.

As before I shall be extra slow and steady, and at the first hint of pain, I shall turn round and crawl back.

Wish me luck!

Good luck! Wishing you all the best - I'm planning to start Wk7 on Sunday. Will regard it as a good omen if you manage it tomorrow!

Thank you Fitter40s, no pressure then lol! I really hope I can run tomorrow, it's such a great feeling, isn't it?

[DebJogsOn Graduate in reply to Hidden]

It surely is! No pressure and no need for luck - I'm sure you'll smash it - just go steady 😊

Good luck, Neil! Hope the knee holds up okay. 💪 (Couldn't find knee emoji). Concentrate on a good upright posture, gentle footfall and your core strength. Everything in our bodies connects up, and surprising things can cause knee pain - including tight calf muscles, so stretch them calves well after runs! x

[Sadie-runs Graduate in reply to Sadie-runs]

Oh, and if you have to take another day and run Sunday, then you run Sunday and that is that. No hurry. Better wait than exacerbate. That's my new catch phrase. I just made that up.

[Hidden in reply to Sadie-runs]

I like that one! I'll see how I feel when I've woken up. I'm typing in my sleep at the moment...

[Hidden in reply to Sadie-runs]

Thanks boss! I misread that and thought you said "gentle football". I'm definitely not playing football!!

Good luck and remember...if your knee is telling you something is not quite right...listen!!

[Hidden in reply to Polly2810]

Yes!! I will, I'll be good

[Polly2810 Graduate in reply to Hidden]

I know...just a gentle nag 😜

That sound like a sensible plan. Slow and steady it is and I shall watch for your post

[Hidden in reply to Oldfloss]

Thanks floss, slow and steady all the way!! Setting off soon after some stretches.

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Hidden]

Go you!

[Hidden in reply to Oldfloss]

Actually getting dressed is probably a good plan too! Don't want to scare the dog walkers...

[Hidden]

Good luck, hope it goes okay

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Thanks Jan, I managed it without too much difficulty, report coming soon!

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

Thank you I'm getting a little better at this self-belief thing!!
