Monday 18th May 06:00 Couch to 10k Week 2-2 Run 5/18

I sneaked an extra day off in yesterday as I slept in for a change.

My run this morning felt easier. I’ll have to take more days off!

I completed three 15 minute runs and got all the way to Cuckfield, distance 8.0 kilometres.

I was buzzing at the end the run, it was really good to get out for a run in the sun.

Wednesday 20th May 06:00 Couch to 10k Week 2-3 Run 6/18

Total time 57 minutes

Thursday 21st Strength and Flex Week 5

Completed all exercises today, but experienced knee pain whilst performing the squats.

Friday 22nd

I have a niggling pain in my left knee this morning and my right knee is swollen. Feels like fluid on the knee, which I’ve not had for a long time. I attempted to run the Couch to 10k Week 3-1 run today, but had to stop straight away due to jarring knee pain.
