W1R1 - buzzing!

[Geordie_julie]

After telling myself for months I'm going to do this (I've literally had the app sitting on my phone untouched since before christmas😳) today I dragged myself out of bed and just completed my first C25K run! I'm absolutely buzzing! Didn't think I would do it, but it was actually easier than I expected. I'm not saying it was easy, run sections 1 & 2 nearly killed me, but I got there!😄

Well done...You are on the way

You don't have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.

Go you!

I'm a wk 1 newbie too! Did day 2 today and feeling good about it! Looking forward to progressing and improving! It's great to find another wk 1 runner! 😀

Well done and welcome

Watch out- it's highly addictive!

Stick with the program, trust Laura, and if you have to go slow, it really means s l o w!

Looking forward to your posts, good luck

Well, if you go nice and steady you'll be fine. Folks only seem to hit the buffers if they go too quick

Good for you for making a start. That's the hardest bit done!

C25k is great. You'll amaze yourself but you have to be stoic. Keep plugging away slow but sure

Well done. I started in Jan. First day I could have exploded or died. Tonight I've run for 31 mins. Not breaking Olympic records but I still did it. Stick with it even when it seems impossible

Well done. Today may be the day that I download the app! Maybe.....

There is no app to download it has disappeared .  However yes do it get running I did the programme and graduated 2 weeks ago and still going strong.  Not as fast as everyone else 47 min 5k but still running non stop and improving.

Not so confident today - feel like I'm dying! My left knee hurts, my right thigh hurts, I've got a blister on my right heel. Although a busy morning at work stopped me having time to feel sorry for myself.

Now I understand the need for the rest day!
