W1D1 - newbie

[Lilrhib]

Hi all,

I just completed week 1 day 1 of the C25K. I was using MapMyRun, the last time I logged a run there was the 16th Jan 2017!! Oops! I fell out of love with running, but I want to get back to it - I really enjoy it when I’m out and feel so proud when I get back (damn endorphins!).

Anyway, I’m back on it, I look forward to reading your hints and tips and share some frustrations through this journey!

Well done for getting back to it, I did w1 run 1 yesterday so let’s do this together

I like that idea - I also like your choice of user name!!

I plan on doing W1R2 tomorrow. When are you planning on doing yours?

[Mustbemad1 in reply to Lilrhib]

Tomorrow after work, I can feel my legs a bit today so I hope I be ok tomorrow

[Lilrhib Graduate in reply to Mustbemad1]

You’ll be fine I’m sure! Let me know how it goes!

[Mustbemad1 in reply to Lilrhib]

You run in the morning or in the day?

[Lilrhib Graduate in reply to Mustbemad1]

I’m going to be running in the evening, hopefully around 5:30 unless I get caught up in work. What about you?

[Mustbemad1 in reply to Lilrhib]

About 6ish tomorrow evening. Where are you from?

[Lilrhib Graduate in reply to Mustbemad1]

I’m currently living in Guildford, Surrey. Yourself?

[Mustbemad1 in reply to Lilrhib]

In Wiltshire

W1r2 done 👍

[Lilrhib Graduate in reply to Mustbemad1]

Great job! I managed to do it as well! I was actually disappointed when I had to stop running and start walking, I felt like I was just getting in to my stride!

How was your run?!

[Mustbemad1 in reply to Lilrhib]

It was good probablybetter than I thought it was going to be as my legs are a bit sore from my first run. The last run I did today was hard but I did it.

[Mustbemad1 in reply to Lilrhib]

Going again on Saturdaydidn’t think I would say this but I am looking forward to it

[Lilrhib Graduate in reply to Mustbemad1]

I’m glad to hear it! I was planning on doing the third one Saturday morning! And just like you, I’m actually looking forward to it!

[Mustbemad1 in reply to Lilrhib]

Not sure how my legs are going to feel in the morning 😩

How old are you did you do much exercise before??

Hi from one newbie to another. I completed my 2nd run this evening. It's nice to know that we are not alone. I only joined this community on the 1st January, and it's already been an invaluable source of information, support and encouragement. Enjoy your journey.
