Well done the beginning and getting out the door is the hardest step. Slow and steady. You sound positive which is great. Good luck and keep us posted how you get on x

Whatever works for you. Advice often repeated on the forum is embrace your inner snail 🐌😁 slow and steady does the job. It's about building endurance not speed at this stage.

Happy running
