Thanks all for your comments I really appreciatethe commens you have supplied me with. I was starting on the couch to 5k but I might try something smaller for the moment.
I decided to give myself a break this week in a bit to try and allow my legs to feel better as they have been quite painful this week. My back inner calf has been really sore when walking a lot.
Which stretches might be best to strech my calves to prevent this happening again.
Sorry I am a complete blank canvas with this? I have been trying to read up on this with magazines as well but think on here I might learn other stuff as well.
Can anyone help me. I have just started out within the last few weeks. I'm not a natural runner but would like to use it as a way of keeping fit losing weight etc. I'm trying to build up slowly, everytime I've come back home I end up in a coughing fit that goes on for a long time afterwards and end up losing my voice. I am a non smoker never tried it. Is this normal to have this happen or is it something else? In addition to this the last few times my legs are sessions up in cramp in my calves. How's best to prevent this from happening agan and what's the most effective cause of action to relieve me from it now. I went late afternoon yesterday and still have a lot of pain in them now. Could this be more in relation to technique or running shoes being the wrong type. Can any of you give me and indication of the best to move forward with this?
