FAQ HOW TO RUN C25k.....A GUIDE.
Heelstrike causes more jarring impacts up the leg, which can lead to knee problems and shin splints and even stress fractures. It is often caused by overstriding, so make sure that your footfall lies under your torso, not out in front.
What a jump from week 3 to 4!!! I’d forgotten!!!
I’m sure I can’t remember there being such a jump!! I ran week 3 run3 on Saturday and was looking forward to week 4. It’s a while since I did it last and in my head I was thinking “ last week was run 1 1/2, then 3, then 1 1/2, then 3… that’s 9 mins. So this week will be run3, then 5, then 3..11 mins
