First Week Down

[mcneils5]

So I finished my first week and I'm feeling pretty good about my progress so far - haven't done any real exercise in years so being able to complete even the first three runs on my first attempt (especially with how hot it's been!) has felt like a real achievement.

Will be starting the 2nd week a little delayed (will be 4 days since my last run due to life/work stuff) but hopefully I'll be able to complete W2R1 on my first attempt

Nice one. I found week 1 the hardest of the lot to be honest - my body didn’t know what the hell was going on and I was worried I might have a coronary. But the programme works, so keep going and good luck!

Thanks! Yeah had a similar experience on the first run and was still aching from it 2 days later lol I was really surprised how much better the second and third runs were by comparison.

Excellent! I definitely found W1 the hardest (on W5 now), and I could barely walk downstairs the next day. Now, apart from a lovely feeling of fatigue in my legs, which reminds me I’m now officially a Runner, they don’t hurt at all!

You’ll enjoy this programme, I’m sure. It’s very effective and you’ll find loads of advice on here should you need it. Everyone is so friendly.

Enjoy your running! 😀👍🏻
