I'm going to buy new running shoes today and start the C25K. I ran a marathon in 2004 and haven't run really since. Now in my 50s and over 2 stones heavier I think the time has come to do something! Wishing you all happy runs in 2019. Looking forward to it.

Just bought mine last Saturday and ran my W1R1 the same day. Wrapped the first week today! Who’d a thought! So- go!
