I am excited to continue with the programme ... im a smoker so lets see how this turns out!..

Hello there kelly, welcome and happy running. I'm on W4 R2 of the program. I was a smoker of ouch 15+ years. I gave up 7 days ago, although I have not really notice a difference as of yet but I think I'm am now repairing some of the damage I've caused by smoking. Good luck with the program you have done to the right place for lots of support and encouragement ;-)

Hi - the vast majority of us here are graduates of the NHS Couch to 5K programme so watch out for differences. We think there is something special about Laura who voices the coaching. (And those of us who have done the original programme, with podcasts of music rather than using the app with our own soundtrack have a very special bond)
