After injury.

[Meanmommab]

I had to stop on wk7 run 2 due to a calf injury. I haven't run for 2 weeks and don't think I am going to risk it for another one so wondered if anyone has advice on the following:

Where should I start when I get my running shoes on?

Advice as to how to avoid future similar injuries? I was already doing some dynamic exercises before I start, the 5 minute warm up walk and the cool down walk and stretches suggested on the app.

Thanking you for your support and encouragement.

Difficult to decide where to re start ,

All you can really do is to go out and find out !

Remember you don't really loose any fitness in the first 2 weeks and then it will be gradual.

I had 16 days off after injury after completing week 8 run 1

I went out afterwards and started the app for week 8 run 2 but had no real expectations, after 10 minutes I was ok so did another 10 and so on.

In the end I managed to complete the run !

Just go out and see without putting pressure on yourself 👍
