Well this is it I am definitely going to do it, the physio did an ultra sound and played about with my knee and then sold me some insoles and strapped my knee up and off I went last night for the make or break run.
I am absolutely delighted to say I made it round just short of 5 miles without my knee giving way. A few times I had funny twinges and got very worried especially after the strapping came off by the 2 mile mark. I was forced to go at a very very slow pace due to the lack of movement and the paranoia but it was running and I will take that at this stage.
My new problem now is the insoles have absolutely destroyed my feet and I now have some enormous blood blisters all over my feet but after my knee troubles that seems unimportant now (remind me of that on Sunday and Monday).
Unfortunately I am a long way from being where I was in terms of fitness but I will be making it round and I am determined to enjoy it and appreciate it.
I am booked back in for physio Friday but I am generally resting until Sunday now.
BRING IT ON!

Excellent news. I jogged it last year after coming back from a niggle and had a fantastic time, no targets apart form the get round. Have a great day
