That was hard, and I think it will take me longer than a week to get through week 1 properly complete, but I feel really good, and really proud of myself for going out.

Hope you're all feeling good today!

Hi and well done... Have you checked out this post for Newbies?

healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Just keep the runs slow and steady... and slow down more if necessary... every run makes you stronger and you will be amazed at the way you will move forward:)

Thank you, I just read it. It's a great post! Thanks for putting it together for us!

After reading it I do see that I'd gone out too soon after dinner, so that's probably why I thought I might vomit a couple of times :)

Thank you again for the help! ❤️️☀️
