Hello! Couch to 5k beginner

Hello! First time here, starting the couch to 5k as due to work and family I’ve not been exercising at all for the past few months. But daunted at the moment and worried I’ll lose motivation so I thought I’d join this group to help by meeting like minded people! Anyone else just starting? X

I was surprised when I joined this forum as to how very friendly everyone is. Don’t think I’ve come across any ‘social media’ page where I’ve only ever seen encouraging comments and no one is in any way rude! If you click on my profile and scroll down a few posts, you’ll come across a post I wrote for ‘newbies’ a few weeks ago. Have a read and you’ll see how far I’ve come on this journey. I’m now doing w8r2 tomorrow. Happy running 🏃‍♀️
