Completed week 6 run 1 last week but I’m struggling to walk let alone run . I was fine after the run but woke up two days later with such painful knee . I am sooo disappointed because I was so please with my progress 😢

Sorry to hear that, just give it some rest and fingers crossed you'll be back on the road very soon. I've had all sorts of aches and pains doing this C25K lark, including some that left me limping. Fortunately they all disappeared after a couple of days. Good luck!

Yay! That's great - looks like you did the right thing by resting it then. Good luck with the rest of week 6! 😀👍👏
