I'm a bit older than you and have done all my c25k outdoors. The weather has been great so I love the outside. Never considered running indoors.

I'm thinking of joining the local harriers as my grandson and his dad are members, but will wait until c25k completed. Doubt if I'll ever do the longer CC races but I think they have shorter club events. Consider joining a club as most of the people are really friendly. I've taken my grandson to many cross country and track events and it is a great day out.

Go very slow and now the weather is getting colder breath in your nose and out your mouth. Nose breathing in warms the air before entering your lungs.

Try some ice(bag of peas wrapped in a tea towel a few times a day) on the tendon, that may help with inflammation.
