Knee Pain.

[Lemontop]

Got some pain in the side of my right knee after completing W3R3 on Thursday night. I didn’t think it was that bad, but I had to stop running this morning after a few strides. Any doctors out there?

I had this as well but mine seemed to vanish when continuing running . Don't know what it was

Most new runner's aches and pains are caused by the impact of running so do all you can to minimise it.

Slow down, avoid heelstriking, keep footfall under your body not out in front, run on grass or treadmill, wear proper running shoes fitted after a gait analysis done at a specialist running shop.
