Hi, I've literally added the app. I have always wanted to run because of its health benefits and it's free (sort of). But I'm crap at running. So I'm gonna try this couch to 5k see if it helps

Well done on downloading the app 😊 couch to 5k will really help, believe in the plan and believe in yourself, I struggled to do the first 60 seconds of running in the first week and now I'm in week 9 and have 1 run left! Good luck on your journey ☺️

Hallo Moons09 and welcome to C25K and this forum! You’ll find loads of advice and support here and there’s no such thing as a silly question. If you’re new to running, as I was, you might find a UTube clip on Japanese Slow Running interesting. For me, it’s been a godsend. Good luck and let us know how you get on!

Crap at running?

Maybe inexperienced or slow, etc.

Take it easy and see how it goes.
