To run or not to run....

[GammaRey]

I completed W5R3 yesteray and as well as being quite pleased with myself for actually running for 20 mins I'm not sure If I should complete my run tomorrow as I think I may have hurt myself.

Yes I know it sounds daft not knowing whether you've hurt yourself but when I'm still my knees are fine when I walk for longer than 20 mins they hurt again.

Could this just be a general ache I could run through or should I take an extra day off?

Anyone have any tips for dealing with knee pain? I've gone from calf pain to shin pain and now my knees 😂

Try these...

If you have the right shoes and are warming up well and stretching after runs... you should be fine... if the pain persists..get it checked out

It certainly won't do you any harm to take an extra rest day and then see how your knees feel. :o)
