Fat, unfit and 55 - silly old bat I thought - you're going to kill yourself! Just got back from my very first run since school and I'm totally buzzing! Can't wait to do the next one! :D

Hooray! Getting started is often the hardest step. Plenty of us old bats out there have been transformed into elegant gazelle like creatures by running - well, in our imagination at least!

Welcome aboard, Faete - plenty of old bats and granny shufflers (me included) here!

Well done! We might remain old bats, but I bet we'll soon lose our bingo wings!

Well done on getting started. You will find many benefits to doing this programme and you are a bit younger than me - there are a lot of more mature people doing C25K. Good luck and best wishes.

Thank you for the responses and encouragement - much appreciated! :)

I just started my c25k and i am unfit too! It felt hard today but i am sure it will get better the more we do it :)

I also started my c25k this morning. I am fat & forty so a bit younger but with the same aim of getting fit & toning up!
