Well, at the grand old age of 64 I thought I may be past the point when I could get into outdoor running, but as I use the treadmill at the gym, thought I'd give it a go. Any smugness quickly evaporated as running outside is different to the gym, but it is better as there is always lots going on around to get your attention, which helps a lot. But I did it and believe it or not I'm looking forward to week two.

Well done! I actually find outdoor running easier than a treadmill. I did a couple of my c25k sessions in the gym at work and hated it, whereas I love running the streets in the evenings.
