Just started week 5

[hmball79]

Just discovered this forum and am now on week 5. Used to run 3 times a week but had my babies and life got in the way!

Just bought a treadmill as cannot leave house of an eve due to looking after my 3 under 5s!!

Anyway, now on week 5 - feel the stamina coming back and running for 5 minutes is becoming the norm. However, my knees have started to really hurt!! Like wake me up at night hurt!! Any suggestions? I can still run but I worry maybe doing long term damage- don’t want it to get in the way of my progress!! X

I would stop running and start with walking/ swimmimg/ cycling. Your knee joints are not used to high impact training and you might cause more damage.

I wouldn't stop exercise but slow down and do lower impact stuff x
