Graduation

1 run left which will be a park run on Saturday. Mega excited I must say. 2 month of constant leg pain and taking pain killers rounds up what has been an amazing journey for me and my fellow C25K colleagues.

Well done on your journey but I hope you have seen a medical professional.

Long term use of painkillers is not good for your body and if the pain is persisting something needs addressing beyond painkillers.

Take care.

I intend to have a break after Saturday to fully recover 😁

Good luck with park run! Seems a long way off for me ... Still in week one! 😀

If the leg pain is running related perhaps you should slow down? I know you’re near graduation but that’s only really the start. If it’s not definitely get it checked. You could also look at the Japanese slow jogging technique (there’s a short film on youtube) which is low impact - designed for injury free running. Take care.

I'll Google that thanks

Best wishes for your Parkrun on Saturday. It’s a great way to celebrate finishing the plan. Just take your time. Don’t get caught up in the atmosphere and take off too fast.

Enjoy.
