I came across this good rationale for running on the NHS website nhs.uk/Livewell/c25k/Pages/...

Not sure if the presenter is the Laura on the podcasts? My coach is in fact Sarah Millican so I don't know Laura's voice.

Hope everyone is enjoying the weather (early morning jogette was a pleasure for me today, so thanks to ALL inspirers. 🌞🌞

Laura is a star! Yep, still loving my running and did my first half marathon in March thanks to getting in to running with C25k, so you never know where this journey will take you! On injury couch at the moment (also part of the journey😫😉) but will be back running just as soon as I can! Good luck!
