Hi all, completed the first run out of nine weeks.

Did a few short workouts first then ran, chose Micheal Jonson to coach and felt great afterwards.

Can't wait for day 2 😊

Well done! You completed the toughest part- getting up and out to run!

Look forward to the next few runs. The running program is excellent and you’ll be astonished at what you can achieve!

Stick in, it’s worth it!

See you around fellow runner, Pam.

Well done Bocky!! It is really awesome to get out of the couch and discover you can enjoy running! At least it was quite a pleasant surprise to me 😉🤣. If you haven’t done it yet, take a look at the Pinned posts: you’ll find lots of useful advice there!

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

Do leave a rest day between workouts.

Enjoy your journey.
