Finally moving on from wk4

So after problems with my right lower leg twice both attempting week 4 runs I’m finally moving on to wk5 injury free. It’s taken gait analysis and physio, restarting or moving backwards in the program twice BUT and most importantly I didn’t give up. I’m happy to report that that is now paying off. Bring on wk5. Happy running everyone 😁

Wow .. i am in awe .. I do not know (thankfully) how I would cope with setbacks. It's tough without any. I am about where you are at the moment. I am pleased to get there too

It was tough and bloody frustrating at times but I’m determined to complete it no matter how long it takes. Good luck with it and hope you never have to find out 🙂
