Hip arthritis and jogging

Angie55

Hi. I’ve just been diagnosed with arthritis in my right hip. Currently it just feels stiff. Just checking the recent information on continuing to jog with arthritis?? I go three times a week for about 3km and really don’t want to stop if possible. The doctor was unsure!
