First tried the program in 2020 and got to the end of week 6, then COVID hit and felt wrong panting round the streets, so I stopped. Post COVID, did some cardio-tennis and got a foot injury which lead to knee pain. Thought I’d need some sort of surgery to put it right, but when I saw the GP, and the idiot said it was just weak and gave me some exercises! Well, the idiot GP was bang on and the knee strengthened. So now I have only slight pain from climbing stairs, I have started the program again. Yesterday completed wk3 run1.

Keeping up with the exercise for the foot/ knee and other parts of your running body will pay dividends.
Loads of great ideas over on the Strength and Flex Forum... and I shall be posting some more ideas there soon.
Listen to your body and remember, if the pain increases to ease back, to reduce any further injury,
Slow and steady and on you go.
