I've just started this, and finished w1r2. I' d done some running years ago but wanted to start again! I live in a very hilly area, but r2 went much better once I discovered a small flat housing estate. R1 was very difficult, trying to run uphill was impossible!
Just starting out!: I've just started this, and... - Couch to 5K
Just starting out!
You have my undying admiration. I did the whole of C25K on the flat and only attempted hills once I graduated. I bet that particular hill won't seem so impossible in a few weeks time (whoops is that a challenge)?
I will leave the hills till later. I live 1\2 way up a valley side in North Yorkshire! Beautiful but not great for beginner runners, especially very unfit ones like me. It's definitely a challenge for later. Everything around here is either climbing or descending down the other side!
Those hills are very sneaky... new ones appear all the time... Well done you....!
I'm currently running in circles around a recreation field in our village. It's not a very large field but it is flat. I ventured around some farm land for a change of view but running up a slope into the wind quickly back to the rec!
I'll give it another go in a few weeks!
