Well done, you've come to the right place. I never liked running, but started C25K a year ago and am completely hooked now. Follow the programme and believe in yourself, and before too long you will be so proud of yourself. Pop in here regularly to let us know how your runs are going. You'll get bags of encouragement, and shed loads of advice if you need it, and a whole virtual running family who'll be running alongside you.

Good luck and enjoy. :-)
