Just started c25k week 1 ... 2nd run yesterday , didn't realise how unfit I was and having asthma it's not been easy , everything aches but it's a good ache ! Looking forward to the next one and having an aim ( to do a park run) makes me more determined 😀👍🏻

Welcome to the programme - you won't regret taking the decision to get fitter.

Glad you are taking week 1 in your stride. Good luck!

BRILLIANT part about the 'aches but it's a good ache" :) I have Astham also, along with a few more nuisances, and have been trying to explain to those who know of them why I go running despite them :) You described it perfectly :) Congratulations on joining the Tribe here - really hope you stay and continue to run with us :)

Well done to you for starting. Most of us were unfit when we started but that soon changes as you go through the programme!
