Week 2 done...but sore leg

[Flutegirl]

Felt good this morning. .. but have had a heavy ache in my left lower leg for the last couple of runs. Annoying cos I felt strong . It is to the left of my shin... any thoughts??

I have exactly the same pain in exactly the same spot. Was agony after my run yesterday and mildly better today but still hurts to walk on it...

Sorry to hear that. It is so annoying isn’t it? I just hope it settles down...

Hi Flutegirl. It's annoying and I had similar problems with my right leg. I just rested for 2 days and get plenty of ice on it. When you run next time make sure you do the brisk walk and perhaps a couple of calf stretches before you start running. Well done for doing the c25k and keep going.

Thanks for the advice... I’ll do that 🏃‍♀️💪

Hi based on your other post about having old trainers I suspect your foot is not landing well and this is causing biomechanical issues.

A bit of rest and some new shoes should sort you out.

Happy shopping
