Hi all, on week 2 of C25K and loving having Michael Johnson as my personal coach. Never expected I could start to run at 55, obese, high blood pressure and arthritis is all joints but itโ€™s working for me. Looking forward to keeping inspired by sharing our journeys ๐Ÿ˜€

Hi, well done so far. We are both on week 2 and share the lovely Michael Johnson as our coach/trainer. Iโ€™m finding his encouragement really helpful and it inspires me to keep going when all I want to do is stop. Good luck with your journey, you can do it!!

Michael will see you right ๐Ÿ˜‰ heโ€™s the ๐Ÿ‘Š

Mr Smooth in my opinion was the only choice an Olympian - tick, a gold medal Olympian - tick, sexy voice - tick.

I couldnโ€™t ignore the three ticks.... Glad youโ€™re enjoying runs with Mr Smooth.

Happy running

Well done Sue ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘. I used to be obese and had terrible joint pain, which forced me to take myself in hand. I was older than you when I started. There are loads much older! This programme is fine though

Just go very slowly and youโ€™ll be fine. Tortoise rather than hare !

The main thing is to have fun! Getting fit needn't be a miserable affair ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

Misswobble is too modest to tell you that she now runs marathons.............. C25K can change your life.
