Week 2 completed the other day despite being away for much of the week, and I must say I felt the difference in my legs over Week 1 already - no real aches and the breathing much easier. However my dodgy back decided to grumble over the week (I've had a history of bad lower back) so that made the runs a bit more ouch. I've also noticed weirdly the front of my shins ache a bit, like in the bone almost, not the muscle, is that expected!?
Anyway onto Week 3 tomorrow and I must say I can't wait, I'm really enjoying this so far. Feels great to be Doing Something Good instead of just thinking about it!

Thanks! Yes I'm trying to float like a butterfly but currently it's more like a heffalump Slowing down, I'm sort of running at a comfortable pace that's not really slow but I was getting more tired running any slower with shorter gait.
Have looked at the strength & flex plan, maybe I need to do more than look then! Time's the problem.
Hi there, well done! Yes my shins fronts were hurting in the first 2-3 weeks too and would feel tender to touch too. I started doing more stretches and strengthening excercises and as I kept going up the program they improved. Stick with it and they’ll be better😀
That's reassuring to know, that it's not something unexpected - thanks. It's definitely gratifying and unexpected to notice improvements already after only two weeks.
