So, my road to running God has been cut short. I mentioned that the running program that I’m following upped the time running. I also mentioned that week 5 seemed wholly impossible. Well as week 4 went on, especially my Thursday run pushed to Friday, I was ready for week 5. I ran further, 30% further, than my previous run. This was all last week because on Thursday night, I put my weight on my right leg and my knee gave way and I thought I was going down. The left knee was a little better, but not by much.
I think mostly I’m just disappointed. I have to start over now, probably with a much longer schedule to get to the 5K. One that won’t hurt my knees. I’ve never had knee problems, so it’s a bit of a shocker.
One thing I am doing is continuing to walk on the nights that I was running to keep up the routine. When I am ready to get back on the road, I won’t have to learn a new routine.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a 16week C25K program?
