Hey guys I've just started the C25k programme. Infact I completed day 2 of week 1 yesterday. I've started the programme as part of a workout routine to loose some weight as I'm currently obese. I found it hard to actually start and I put it off for ages, but now that I've actually started I feel amazing. Can't wait to carry on. Wish me luck.

Good luck. Without a doubt the hardest part is just getting started. The second hardest part if surviving week one! I thought it was really difficult, but that's because I was sooo unfit. Amazingly it really does get easier and I am now at the point where I'm itching to get out again and feeling very fedup because I'm poorly at the moment and stuck indoors for a bit. Hoping to be fighting fit again by the end of the week and ready to put on my running shoes. You'll find, as I have done, a really friendly and supportive community here.
