Promised myself I would start C25K after work tonight and despite not feeling like it I stuck to it and now feeling pretty good I did :-) Have not exercised for a while so breathing was not the best but I know that will improve over time! Feeling inspired by all the positivity on here! Thanks!

The trick is to go whether or not you feel like it. I’ve never regretted going out but have regretted not running 🏃🏾‍♀️

Totally agree, I changed into my running stuff as soon as I got home to help get me out there. The app helps too! Feeling good I stuck to the plan, thanks 😊

Well done! You’re going to ache a bit tomorrow but you’ll be fit and ready for r2. Best decision you’ve ever made. Good luck and enjoy the plan.
