I was so tired from work, but still managed to drag myself out. First 5 minutes was hell, kept thinking just stop for a bit. So glad i pushed on. Feel much better now. It is amazing the progress from when I first started. Really looking forward to next run.

You know, you have such a great attitude (maybe just your face in the pic!) that I am sure that you will continue on your running journey, whatever life throws
It's great when you have a good run, isn't it?
I am in this habit where the first 5 minutes are always a struggle for me, but once I am over that first five minutes, it really becomes enjoyable. After I reach week nine. I will treat myself to running in this amazing forest area nearby that I had no idea existed. It even has the remains of an old iron age fort. That will be my reward
Feel great to be so close to completing couch to 5k

You are doing brilliantly, well done!!
I always have to talk myself through the first ten minutes as I hate them, hate them, hate them! And then I hit minute eleven and it is suddenly fun and I feel I can do anything!!

Very well done you!
Well done you got past the flaky 5 minutes which was always my bugbear. Surprisingly I never minded the toxic tens, it was effing five that was my bête noire. You're doing very well and nicely settled in your running.
