So Happy.

Ah the highs and lows. So happy today. Just completed W8r1. Been nursing a knee niggle all week. Just took the plunge and breezed the run. No issues with pace or breathing. Legs felt good. Hopefully I won’t get a reaction. Did a 15 minute warm up. Perhaps the rest did me good.

Great! I am a keen believer in rest days since getting past 60. Certainly notice with hiking that a rest is invaluable. We just lie allow with our kindles imagining our muscles growing😊

BTW, two things that have stopped my knee niggles; making sure my feet are pointing slightly outward all the time ( difficult to monitor), but then a visit to the podiatrist and a pair of orthotics and bingo!
