I am 48 and have never run in my life I have taken 2 months off between jobs and decided this was my time to get fit as I am overweight. I am now in week 6 and apprehensively got the 20 minute run tomorrow. I love love love running. I would love any advice as I am learning everyday.

Stop thinking about the time and keep putting one foot in front of the other. It will be over before you know it and in a few weeks 20 minutes will be nothing 😁

Don't worry about it you will do it. Take on the scenery and enjoy yourself.
Take it slow it's not a race . Well done on the journey so far xx

I did it today it was tough and thought of packing in at 15 minutes but didn’t. Thanks for your messages much appreciated 💕
