My knees seem to be mending. I tried w1r1 again and managed about half of it, still a bit sore but possible. Tried to run on grass, round and round our retreat house garden. More like very fast walking only felt like jogging by the end. I did do the whole session, but walking for longer in between the runs, then iced when I got in. I hope it will get easier!! I' ll try again midweek.

Well done for your persistence! You'll get there!

I had a very close relationship with pain relieving cream for the first 2 weeks of the programme. I would apply some on my knees every night before going to bed because of the aching and soreness (plus I had an old, old injury that still used to hurt). As my knees got stronger I didn't need it more than once every few weeks. Hang in there.
