W1 R3 completed

Have been trying to get motivated to get fitter and shed some pounds for years...and haven’t run since school x-country 35 years ago (more time spent avoiding than running!) so delighted to have discovered the app and to have completed the first week...feeling it a bit now though but looking forward to W2.

Well done 👍 you've made a great choice.

Have you read the faqs? healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Expect to feel it a bit, after all nothing worth having in this life is easy 😉

Very true. I think a few aches are worth the sense of achievement and the genuine excitement of starting week 2
