Where does it say not to run in pain? Sorry I can’t find it

In the paragraph preceding the advice on how to deal with injury

When anyone, however fit, starts a new physical training regime that they are not used to, they will suffer aches and minor pains initially. This is unavoidable but should you be in real pain, then your body is telling you to stop…...so do just that.
