Went out last night as felt good but didn’t do a lot so stopped and walked, really painful today so had X-ray a/w report and I’ve referred myself to physio at work , I’m a nurse so I’ll wait and see so annoying but better to rest and wait and see hopefully it’s just a wee rest I need

Hope you are ok. Try not to worry. Think you are wise to rest and wait for the results.

I hope u r on the mend. I had really bad knees a few weeks into the program. I took more rest days and used ice. Also had a physio sesh. It did ease, I just think my body wasn't used to what I was doing to it and I needed to build up strength. 🤞🤞 Fingers crossed be something similar for u and u will soon be back out there. Good luck

You and me both... I’ve been out for nearly two weeks now. I think today is the day to test things out, but I’m going to be strict with myself. Strength exercises and stretches for 3 weeks, before any long or faster runs! I just found lots of rest and ice helped.
