The podcast lasts for about 32 minutes

Yeah, there's 8 mins of running in total, and that is spread into 60 second chunks. For the first day I took it really easy just to make it to the end of the podcast, then managed to step it up the second time when I knew what i was letting myself in for.

Although the sessions last approximately 30 minutes I tend to allow an hour out of my day, this gives me chance to have a glass of water, a breather and a shower!
Welcome, and GOOD LUCK. You can do it.
If you want some inspiration watch the Youtube clip, 'Running for my existence'. Very inspirational, and even tear-jerking.
I thought I would find it difficult but, as others have said, it is broken down into manageable chunks. Now I love my runs. Welcome to the programme, just go out and enjoy it. All the very best of luck with your first session.
