Thank you all for your kind words and support. However, yesterday my knee got so much worse. I could barely put any weight on it. So today, after phoning in sick at work, I attempted to ring the doctors. Of course at the moment you're not allowed in so I got a call back this afternoon. Seems I have a sprain or strain on my knee. 6 to 8 weeks before I can run again 😥 I work for the NHS and I dont think it'll be too long before we're all in lockdown too. Keep well everyone 👍

That must be discouraging. I think we all live in fear of anything stopping the motivation once we've screwed up our courage to start. We'll be here when you're ready to come back.
