Well done, I’m in week 1 too, felt like a bus had run over me this morning but still went for run 2, I’m telling myself the aches are good aches and thinking how much better I’m going to feel in a few months, keep up the good work 👍😄
Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.
This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...
Enjoy your journey.
He's right. The guide is vital reading.
Especially the stretching. Some of the stretches aren't simple for the bigger man so some improvisation may be needed. Well done for doing this. I dropped out twice and now on my third attempt. Don't give up!
Well done you 🎉🎉🎉🏃🏻♂️ Don’t forget to stretch, stretch and more stretch.... and drink water. 😊
That’s fabulous..... you are on your way. Good luck and happy running. 😀.
Fantastic, and what a beautiful place to run! I've just completed W1 so at a similar stage to you. Keep up the good work and let us know how you get on.
Huge congratulations! Looking forward to hearing more...I'm only just starting W3, so still getting used to all this!
Great for getting started and you'll notice your health improve also , this plan is for everyone good luck
Great start! If you enjoyed it you’re doing way better than I did on run one... I really wanted to stop, lie down and wait for the ambulance! Keep running just like you did today and you’ll have no problems by the sounds of it, nice steady (slow) pace is all that’s needed. You can do this whole thing for sure. Enjoy run 2
Well done!
Fabulous, you won’t regret it!
