Well done on getting to the end of the first week! You should feel proud- it's definitely not easy.

Excellent. I hadn't realized this group was here when I started. I roped my sister (who lives across the pond) into doing it with me, and it made all the difference. I think knowing there is someone else doing it helps. We encourage each other... and that is what this group is for. So, keep up the good work.

You'll find you enjoy it more and more as the weeks go on even though it's tough. Lots of us started this programme thinking we hated running and we're addicts now!

Well done! W1 is quite hard if you're literally starting from couch. Keep at it, and check back in here for a supportive bunch of folks who really help motivate you. You can do this. Good luck!

You know this programme gets you like that. One minute you're not even thinking about running. Next minute you have a wardrobe full of running kit, shoes etc. 😆

Good luck & keep enjoying it.
