Not liking it 😩 finished it but have to walk a little in the last 5 mins run . My legs really hurt . I think I may need to revisit this week again after run 3. Bit disappointing as I really wanted to be able to keep moving up a gear . Must listen to my body. Any tips on how to relieve pains in calf’s, side of shins and pins and needles in feet . I stretch before and after and I don’t think my trainers are to tight. These seems to be my big problems

Have you had a gait analysis done? Read on the pinned guide that by now we should be getting some proper fitting trainers. I’ve just done wk4r3 and I reckon it’s time I bit the bullet and got some proper shoes. Been running in an old pair of Karrimor trail trainers and it’s about time i looked after my feet. Maybe it’s time for you too? (If you’ve not had it done already of course). Also two day rest might help before r3.
Thanks for the info- I haven’t had one do I get that done at any sports shop?
I googled it to find my closest. It’s a running shop. The analysis is free if you buy a pair of trainers afterwards otherwise it’s £10. Probably similar deals elsewhere. Seems like a good investment seeing as I’m getting into it now.
Not what you're looking for?
