Well, I tried to run again last week and my knee swelled up again almost immediately so I'm having to give up again. I feel so disappointed and frustrated and I have no idea when I'll be well enough to run.
At the moment, I'm fed up with C25K, if I'm being honest. I hate that I've gotten so involved with it and I've ended up getting injured so I can't run at all. I wish someone had warned me that this could happen so I could have protected myself better - perhaps if I'd stretched or gone a bit more slowly I'd be in better shape today.
Because I can't run, I'm finding it hard to motivate myself. I wish there was a similar programme for walking! It's so much easier to get out of the house and do something when you're following a programme.
Anyway, I'm trying not to moan so much, I'm just feeling sad today and disappointed that it's going to be a long while before I can run again.
Its frustrating isn't it?My body doesn't seem to want me to run at the moment either .. I've made It to w6 first time round and w3 this time ...but I have benefited ...I can walk faster and I caught a bus on friday that I wouldn't have before c25k.
Could you give swimming a go? The swimathon is in April with a variety of challenges. I'm going to give it a go.
