Wow! This programme definitely works - in 5 weeks I’ve gone from getting breathless on a brisk walk to running for two lots of 8 minutes tonight! Weirdly looking forward to the 20 minute run on Friday!🏃🏻‍♂️🏃🏻‍♂️🏃🏻‍♂️

Sure you will find it’s easier than a lot of people think, and you’ll get a buzz knowing that you are really on track to becoming a life long runner
