Got up and left family sleeping and did my first ever run before 6am!!
Now at work and have a real zing in my step.
Was apprehensive before, wanted to stop at 5th one minute run.
Glad I stuck with it.
Looking back it was great. Plus I cannot believe I walked and jogged 1.9 miles all before 6am.
Amazing.
Just hope I can see all this through.
Looking forward to 2nd run on Friday morning.
Well done all. Happy days.
I was the same last week! Felt great after I did it....awful for the first couple of runs.
Yesterday I did day 1 of week 2 and thought I'd never step up to 90 seconds as I still felt the 60 was a struggle. Amazing how I did it actually and each run got easier.
I find concentrating on breathing helps me....and also thinking of anything other than waiting for that little voice telling you it's time to slow down again haha! Keep going!😊
It’s a great programme you will be amazed how it works x
Thank you Mcdon
Thank you Stellie! The voice was actually quite encouraging! I was very surprised by my achievement today.
Hope we can all keep it up.
Mrmeaker I also find the voice really helpful. But I did find myself begging it to tell me to walk 😂. I have mine set on Jo Whiley on the app I'm using. I did get a little cross on the last run when she said ' right this is your last run so really put your heart and legs into it '!......I was knackered at this point and actually swore out loud at her 😂😂. Just as well nobody was around lol.
Welcome and well done on getting started.
The guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...
Enjoy your journey.
Thank you I’ll have a look. Cheers.
Nice one mate! Completed my first run yesterday, used to run about 12 miles weekly but haven't gotten out there in a few years so found this was a perfect way to get back into it. Good luck with the rest of your journey!
Well done to you too chap! I’ve been energised and enjoyed today because of the run today. Hope you are feeling great as well and good luck for day 2 tomorrow.
Very well done!!! Keep it up 💪💪☀️☀️🏃♀️🏃♀️
