Vowed to start Couch to 5k as my hubby is 50 in 9 weeks and I wanted something to aim for. My initial thoughts were "I won't be able to do this" but I listened to Sarah M as inspiration and kept thinking "I'm am only running for 60 secs". Feeling great! First proper exercise I've done in years. Run 2 = Thurs. wish me luck!
1st run wk 1 - I did it π: Vowed to start Couch... - Couch to 5K

You sound much better than I did after my W1R1, I did not feel great and wasn't sure how I was going to ever do it but I'm now a graduate running x3 a week! I think you're going to smash this but good luck!
Iβve just started c25k today aswell π
Me too. Felt a bit silly but pleased I did it. Surprised how out of breath I was!
I did my second run of week 1 tonight. I slowed it right down as I thought I was going to die on Sunday π₯. Felt a lot better today.
