Knee Trouble

I completed the couch to 5k a few months ago. Suddenly I'm having pain in my thigh and knee. It is a dull ache and makes me have to stop running. I thought it was my shoes. Bought new ones but still having the same issue.

You might need to rest for a while to see if it mends, if not after about a week or so a trip to the docs to get it checked just incase its a torn muscle.

It might only be a strain, rest, pain relief gel etc maybe light stretches after a few days.

I hope it mends soon for you..
