Hi all. I'm Roo. Male, 45 yrs, overweight but trying to change. On my 2nd attempt, with the help from my son I've just completed w1r1. I'm so happy! First attempt I did 5 runs and that was me done. Tonight my lad, 14 came out to help and we did it. We've decided to tackle this together. Nice to have a chat about our day as we stomp along. Weirdly looking forward to r2... Just wanted to say hi.
Hello everyone.... newbie. Wk1r1 done. - Couch to 5K

Hi Roo, well done!! I’m about to restart at W1R1 and looking forward to it, got to W8R3 a couple of months ago, then illness struck 😕😕 and it’s set me right back now as I’ve been inactive for so many weeks, but better now than never!!

Well done. Keep on going. I remember W1 R1 not so long ago back in July and thinking that the 1 min runs towards the end seemed way longer than 1 min. Stick to the programme and it will get you to your goal. It worked for me and I’m sure it can work for you too. Best wishes.
