Good job, keep it up I started couch to 5k last week and am finding it rewarding having goals to work to as I like you didn't really exercise before!

Hi, and welcome, the hardest part is starting that first run! I love this program, the structure of it really helped me to keep going, I hope you find it does the same for you.

Hello and Well done on starting out on this amazing program ..you won't regret it 😁

The program works . builds your fitness and confidence as you go .. take each run as it comes. Run slow and then slower still so you can complete each times run .. trust the program and Believe in yourself 😁😁
