Well I've managed to build back up, following time out for bad knees and have run my second run of week4 all the time with trepidation, but my knees feel a bit better.
Anyway had an appointment today with the Dr that I'd booked two weeks ago, to get me knees checked out, to make sure I wasn't doing any damage and the good news is that me knees are fine, no damage to knees, cartlidge etc, it's only my muscles, which is what i was hoping, so more stretching is the prescription he gave me.
He also tried to talk me into cycling, cross training and swimming in stead, but i'm already a bit addicted to running (can't believe I say that now), so care, occasional extra rest days and plenty of stretching, and I might add cycling and swimming to my repatoir at a later date.
I'm so chuffed and I know a bit of the enjoyment that I'd replaced with a bit of worrying is allowed to return.
Woohoo...Bring it on Laura!
