Hi All,
I feel as though i am going backwards! i started running in February for the first time ever, started outdooors 10 mins in the morning and 10 minutes at night 5 - 7 days per week. Built upto approx 2 miles am and 2 miles pm then did some treadmill work and managed both treadmill and out door 3 miles but approximately 3 - 5 times a week just one in a day with no problems. Now for the last 3 weeks (since my race for life) my right upper thigh is hurting so much that when i walk and put weight on it its really painful when its lifted off the floor its fine. When i run it doesn't feel as painful as walking and at the moment my new schedule is mon, wed, fri night 3 miles on treadmil and tuesday thursday out door run 1-2 miles then depending how i feel one out door run at the weekend and 1 day rest. I have tried resting for a couple of days and it feels fine and then as soon as i start running it's back!! so as i am still very new to running any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Forest
