Managed just over half of it before pain behind my knee stopped play. I will not be put off though ran all the way through 3 of the minutes. More than I thought I could do .

Great effort... tricky run to get right. Read that guide as linked above, it will help a lot.

Enjoy the next time out, it does get a little easier.

Well done for starting Joycedon. Maybe slow it down when you try again, think snails 🐌 and tortoises 🐢

Well done. Yes you should be pleased! First of all you went out there. AND you didnt give up when you had an 'excuse'. It is sooo easy to skive, i am the best at justifying giving up on difficult stuff.

So. This is the new you, persevering and doing it. Don't worry.

Make sure you feel better and go out there! Are you taking it slow and steady?

1:1 is a bit of a killer - it shows you just how unfit you really are ! This isn’t a mad dash to 5k: it’s a chance to build up your fitness gradually. You literally can’t go too slowly, as long as you go ! Happy running 😀😀
