The first week is the hardest for many, but well done for getting on with it.

You won't regret it.

If you find it tough, then simply slow down. Your body will still develop stamina and strength at a nice easy pace where you can actually hold a conversation. Any faster is increasing your injury risk.

Keep us posted.

I'm still waiting for it to get easy.

Very addictive though.

Well done! You have already taken the hardest step of the whole programme. It will get easier, I promise, and a few weeks from now you will be amazed at what you can do.
