Wk3 Completed!

[RunDone]

Took 5 days off mid-week while I had a cold but didn't seem to affect me when I got back out there.

I had been following the instruction in the podcasts to 'land on you heels', even though it seemed unnatural. It caused me some knee pain in wks 1 and 2. Thanks to Ian's 'Essential Reading' I have now corrected my gait and my knees are much improved.

A bit daunted by wk 4 but no reason to doubt the program - I feel the improvement And I'm still enjoying it!

Well done on completing week 3 !

And yes , heel strikes will not help the knees I'm glad you have sorted it out .👍

Great job… a third of this plan is defeated now… sure week 4 wants a crack at the title, but the champ will win.

If you’re enjoying it that’s the biggest part of the battle done! I’ve had 2 weeks off with hip injury so hope to be bouncing back like you soon! Thanks for the inspo! Keep going!

Last run in wk3 for me tomorrow wk 4 is another step up but we can and will do this. Hope the cold has gone

Good luck tomorrow. Wk4 seems like a big jump but TBH I felt that at the end of weeks 1 and 2 as well and it was OK. That's given me faith in the progression of the program.
