Happy St Swithin's Day everyone...
It is very, very warm and sunny here and I really hope it does not rain on anyone for forty days!!!!
Well...here we are again... week 3 of July... and the weather might be getting a tad warmer
I start this week feeling much happier as yesterday, I managed my longest run since climbing off the IC! Yeayayayay!
Those runs, they always wait for us...
The number of folk on the forum increases daily...( the numbers are truly frightening), and although it is tricky to keep up with everyone's progress... it is great to have a little fun post, so we can see who is on which week of the programme, and hopefully it will help everyone to feel more included on the forum.
I apologise if I miss posts or replies, as there really are a lot of us!
We can support, encourage and generally help each other, in a positive and friendly way, with no thought of comparison.
Please remember it doesn't matter if you stay on the same week for a while, that is fine; it is a journey and it really doesn't matter how long it takes, it will be so worth it when you get to the final run.
If you have just Graduated, also, this will be a great place to keep you motivated,and the new Quest on here too...pleas do take a look and join in!
One of the best things about this weekly chat is that you can talk to each other, support and encourage each other and find folk on the same week or run as you.
So, please do come and join the fun...slip off your running shoes, and just let us know how it is going

PS
Leave your umbrellas outside please xx
So glad your running return is going well 😊
Should have done W3R1 today but my knee is feeling niggly so I’m having an extra day’s rest and will run tomorrow. I think I’ll get some proper running shoes soon and hope that might help the knee. In the meantime, slooooow running and kissing the ground with my feet!
Enjoy the fine weather!
Thanks
You take it steady and rest as much as you need to... have you been doing any knee exercises?
I have done some, but I’m a bit wary as if it’s recreating the movement that makes it hurt, I’m worried it’ll just put more stress on it. I’m probably just being a drama queen. I’ll see how the next couple of runs go, and if it gets worse, I’ll probably have to see what the GP says 😬😳🤯
Best get checked out..and a sports physio would probably be your best bet x
Thank you. I guess maybe I should 😔
