I did it last year, lapsed so started again from wk1 run 1 now just finished week 5. Keep going, you know you can do it.

Cheers. It was remarkably easy, so i don't have any fears about this.

Good luck with yours

Well done, I’m just about to go out for 1st run on week 4, it’s upping it quite a bit, bit scared tbh 🥴

How has the progression felt so far? A struggle, easy, or something in between?

It’s been ok, I’ve enjoyed it. Feel like my stamina is improving a lot, the first few minutes running hurts my legs but by then end I feel great, like I can do more. I just need to get out now and get this run done, I’m putting it off! Haha 😂
