Well done you two. That first run is a beast. Nearly killed me too, and many others. Great that you’re both alive... next time out it’s not (quite) so bad! Welcome to the programme

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

Enjoy your journey.

Welcome, welcome and thrice welcome.

If I may so bold, I shall offer one piece of advice. If you carry on, get a good pair of running shoes. Other clothing is relatively inconsequential, but shoes are the thing one you need to pay attention (but not necessarily too much money) to.

Get a gait analysis done too.

Keep us posted, ask questions, rant, rave and add good runs. We ARE interested.
