Thanks poppypug, i know I can do this I've made my mind up. I think I just need to not worry about the end of it just one run at a time 🤔 Thanks for your reply x

Well done on getting started, you should get there as long as you take it slow. No injuries you'll work up to it fine.

Thank you everyone, my 14 yr old step son is doing it as well but been 20yrs younger than me isn't really struggling. In fact we run alternate days as I know I couldn't keep up with him yet so run on our own then compare the results. I woke up feeling refreshed and ready for w2 r1 tomorrow 😀 Thanks everyone trust the programme, trust the programme.

Well done for completing W1 R3 😀 I just started W2 R1 this morning. It's so good on here hearing from everybody and getting encouragement to be able to think that this can actually be achieved!!! Look forward to hearing how we all progress. Good luck
