Good luck! This is a great programme and the posters on here are fantastic for advice and support. You can do this (I'm channelling Michael Johnson now).

Good luck. I’ve just completed my first week. The only advice I have to offer is “pace yourself, you can always push harder if you have energy left towards the end” 😊

Follow the programme, take it slow and steady.. do not push yourself, and listen to your body. The main thing is, keep posting and enjoy :)
