Hi all, I have been lurking for a couple of weeks so thought I would sign up today. When I get home today I will embark on wk3r1. Scared!! I am doing this course on my home treadmill so I have NO excuses for not running....ever!!!!

Its lovely to see everyone supporting each other on here.

I've just done it!! Feel good. My calves hurt so much tho lol. Really tight even tho I stretch before and after. Maybe not enough? My upper body feels fine on the run which is great and proving my staminas improving my legs just feel like lead??

Well done!

Well done, as you say no excuses when the treadmill is in your home, but don’t be scared - it’s good fun and the sense of achievement is immense.
