Well done I've just done w4r1, my ankles seemed to hurt just at the last 2 mins of last 5 min run, they are fine now. No idea about yours I'm nearly 40 so every day i find a new ache

Well done on the run, we’re at the same same stage. Not sure about the stiffness, after today’s run my bum felt like it had done some work haha πŸ˜‚

Well done. It's always nice to get that first run of the week under your belt.

Try a few stretches before and after your run. Might help a bit. Could be your running shoes too. Maybe not enough cushioning?
