Brilliant... you have to expect all sorts at first.. your body wonders what you are doing to it!

Keep it very, very slow and steady...take your rest days.. never miss one... and listen to your body... you will know the difference between normal aches and any real problem,

Keep posting for terrific support and advice too!

Well done you! :)

First step is the deepest, to misquote Rod Stewart. Well done on you on kicking the sofa and getting out there. Oldfloss has the special mentor badge for a reason.... she keeps you going with fab advice as does our other one IannodaTruffe who is a straight talking, veteran running advice machine. Listen to these two and you can't go wrong. Good luck next tîme out
