Week 2, run 2 done, even with a sore knee! I am loving this

Well done you. i have done my knee in, so bad i struggled to walk this morning literally yelping in pain. However i did the school run on foot this afternoon and although it was painful i did it!! So going to have one more rest day and attempt my w2r2 on Saturday. We can do this all for one and all that... 😘😘

I hope your knee is soon better, mine is quite sore so going to rest it tonight now

[igottagetthruthis in reply to Kazzio]

how did you find your run? was it ok with a bad knee??

[Kazzio in reply to igottagetthruthis]

Yes I was ok, just took it really steady and having my music on certainly helped

[igottagetthruthis in reply to Kazzio]

thats the motivation i needed thankyou. Glad your getting better. It must be hard on our bodies going from zero to exercise for me anyway,don't think my size is helping regarding the knee injury a lot of weight for my poor legs to take on. Like putting a 2tonne weight on a donkey!!! lol.

[Kazzio in reply to igottagetthruthis]

I am the same, very overweight but I do walk about 2 miles a day with my dog which helps. Never thought I could do this but I am going to try my hardest!!!

[igottagetthruthis in reply to Kazzio]

Well i find this forum very motivating so i am sure we can all motivate each other. I am going with the mantra slow and steady wins the race.

I am very happy to know that you are enjoying your running Kazzio, onwards and upwards to run 3 of week 2😊🏃

Great work Kazzio! 👍👏 feel free to take another day off before week 2 run 3, until your knee is better, I wouldn't want running to worsen it.

This is a great programme isn't it ✅👍

[Kazzio in reply to Mike_Bravo]

I love it! Probably won’t run till Sunday now

[Mike_Bravo Graduate in reply to Kazzio]

It's really good to hear it Kazzio 👍😄 I bet you're looking forward to graduating, it'll probably come around sooner than you think.

It's great looking forward to runs; I've got a 30-minute one tomorrow I'm buzzing about. Going to have to do it after work though because I've found a local-ish park that's about 10 minutes away that I want to run in.

If you have knee pain following the advice in the guide to the plan healthunlocked.com/couchto5... on minimising impact, stretching after every run and knee strengthening exercises.
