I’ve been thinking about this run since Sunday when I ran 21k for the first time. My knees were complaining for a couple of days afterwards and I was worried it would be painful if I ran a similar distance again today.
Turns out... I was right! I’m feeling okay now but at a few points I thought about stopping, not because I was feeling tired - just my right knee was really quite painful.
Anyway, I stuck with it. Tried some gels for the first time, had extra water, and stuck to the plan. 💪
