I’m almost 62 and spent the past 20 years with little or no exercise. I weighed in at almost 21 stone....I know disgusting. Well that was 2 years ago I now weigh 14st and am into my 5th week on Couch to 5k and loving it. My goal is a 5k run and maybe even longer.

Wow reading makes me want to do it even more , I’ve only just started and like you I am 4stone over weight I’ve lost 20lbs now so trying this programme to give me a new lease in life . Reading your post certainly helps me thank you
Thanks for replying to my post Pencoed18. The weight loss is amazing so keep that up (I know it can be difficult at times). I have just completed wk5r2 and feel terrific. Keep being inspired and look forward to graduating!
Hi. I'm not so bad - W1R3 completed yesterday but pins and needles on sole left foot have prompted shopping for running shoes after gait assessment. Thought I'd nip any problems in the bud before next run tomorrow 😊
