Gathering info and downloading apps to start my journey tomorrow morning. Wish me luck, Iโ€™m going to need it! I have a pooch ๐Ÿถ who will join me and keep me going along with running circles around me and tripping me up no doubt.

Thank you for the warm welcome and info. Iโ€™ll let you know how I get on. I have done a lot of reading, downloaded a playlist from Spotify that was recommended in the forum, I know what I will wear. Just need to work out my route so Iโ€™m not doing 10 circuits of the same place.

Good luck, Iโ€™m sure your lovely canine companion will enjoy the runs as much as you do. My run takes me past my front door at the half way point.... Iโ€™d avoid doing that if you can๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

That would be far too tempting, you have great will power. I have an idea of a route but starts and ends with uphills, at least they will be my warm up and down parts ๐Ÿ˜ฃ

I just know how rubbish Iโ€™d feel if I gave up. Iโ€™m lucky I no longer live in a hilly area just a couple of inclines, even warm up and cool down theyโ€™d be too much for me ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
