With trepidation I started todays w5r3 with hope of running for 20 minutes but no certainty. But thanks to husband Bobthedog I did it, well we did it. Bob and I , who watched joggers go by with a "why would you want to" We are no longer doubters it's great and we are feeling good .

Week 5 was ok, but run 3 was a big jump time wise. I am 67 hubby 72 so if we can I am sure you can. Believe in yourself and stay positive. Good luck and happy jogging
