Just started this week. Running on the gym treadmill to start. Had a good year losing weight last year and need to start running now to return to doing total warrior in June

What does total warrior involve? Is it like spartan race etc?

Yeah but only 12k and great fun. Plenty of mud. Good to do as a team

Cool, so you have done this before then? How come you're starting again with c25k having done what sounds like quite a gruelling obstacle/mud run in the past? I'd love to do something similar once i'm confident of 10k+

I'm 56 lost my fitness basically. The warrior is not as bad as it sounds getting a few that the obstacles and we do it as a team. We wait for each other. Great fun though. I just want to get running a little as I only do circuit classes at the moment
