Well, the rain had stopped so off I went after a stressful day at work. Paths were slippy in places but I was taking care! I was 3K in when I met a couple of ladies standing on the corner having a chat. I tried to negotiate my way around them but instead decided to dive to the floor in a spectacular way! I then had to walk a little but was determined to finish my run. Off I went again but then realised I must have pulled my groin. So it turned into a very slow run for the last five minutes! My elbow is now huge and I can barely walk but only three more runs until I graduate!!
Finished week 8 in a dramatic way!! - Couch to 5K

That looks AWFUL! If you have got a groin strain, you probably ought to rest that for a few days. Well done for persevering! 🙌

Bless you. Hope you are ok. Xx
I can relate to being stubborn. Wouldn't have got this far otherwise. Take care of yourself.
Ouch that looks sore 🥴x
