So with over 10 stone to lose this is the start. Can’t believe I did run one straight off. I thought of I’ll do 15 mins then do the other half but no it only did the whole 30!! Let’s see what tomorrow brings.

Whoop whoop 🎉🎉

Enjoy your rest day tomorrow. There are loads of yoga for runners video's on YouTube if you start to discover new muscles complaining they had to work.

Amazing Lard-2-lean, I am 10 stone, (10st.5lbs to be precise) you have to lose 10 stone and you ran for a whole 30 minutes, I assume that was run 1 of week 9, congratulations.

Great job. By the end of this you’ll be able to burn fat. Gotta say I couldn’t have done a minute when I was overweight, I struggled at normal BMI to be honest, I’m impressed. Enjoy rest day and nail the next run.

Well done! It might look a lot, but focus on losing it a pound at a time, the same as we run a minute at a time. You can do it!

Congratulations on completing run 1 (not sure if I read correctly but think you mean run1 of week 1) this was the one where I realised just how unfit I was. Keep up the good work and we will all be at the finish line when you graduate :)

Just think... this time next year you’ll be running distances you never dreamt of, you will be fit and the bonus is you’ll look good. This is the start of a journey for you... keep it up. Well done and good luck!
