I start Week 5 of C25K tomorrow and I did a 10k yesterday. I am SO sore today. Would walking help or should I just stay resting?

    Oxygen heals, so I would get some light activity like walking going. Congrats on the 10K!!!

    If you have general muscle "soreness", walking would probably be good. If you have sharp "pain" in a particular muscle, you may have injured yourself.

    Runnersworld.com and runningtimes.com are excellent resources.

    Congrats on the race, BTW!

    Just soreness, no specific pain anywhere. Thanks for the congrats and replies!
