Week 2, Run 2

First two 90 seconds were fine but by the third burst my lower back was painful. (I assume creeking under the pressure of carrying the weight at the front!!!?).

Will definitely have to give week 2 another spin that’s for sure.

Thanks for the encouragement though for a newbie.

Well done!

I don't know if this is any help, but I try and do dynamic stretches as a warm up before I do a run, as I tend to think that helps - here's some of the ones I do: runnersworld.com/health-inj...

I gave week 2 another spin as well, so if you feel that's what you need then that's totally what you need to do - don't want to move on to week 3 and give up completely because you feel its too hard!

Onwards and upwards from here :)
