Did my week 1 day 1 run last night and my legs are so achey. Once i get moving they aren't so bad but those first few steps yikes. Resting up today before venturing out again tomorrow night. Feel less anxious about doing it in the dark.

Me too. I did W1R1 yesterday and feeling it today. I did some stretches afterwards yesterday but I’m now wondering whether I should try to do some dynamic stretches or loosening up before I venture out tomorrow. Good luck Grumpypumpkin tomorrow.

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

The muscle aches are something you have to get through. For me, they pretty much cleared up by W5.
Enjoy your journey.

Great job. Those aches are your medal of honour, keep moving on them tomorrow, keep them loose. Enjoy run 2
