Week 6 run 2 - Oww! that hurt

rest up until the knees dont hurt when walking or doing stairs. that would be my advice. a little after finishing c25k I overdid it by running on an incline on the treadmill which I dont usually do & the following morning my knee went from under me. I had to take a month off as I did the silly thing of returning to running too soon. perhaps do the ice, hot water bottle, elevate, rest thing until it is feeling like normal. ice takes the swelling away & hot water bottle brings the blood flowing to that area apparently (told by a nursie friend). I used the cross-trainer & bike with your legs in front of you instead of under you, at the gym & swam to keep my fitness up.

on the plus side it does make you more determined to get back out there
