So after suffering with back problems since January I decided this rut was ending, haven't been running since before Christmas so decided to do couch to 5k to gradually get me back to it as I know if I just go and start running I'll injure myself. So started yesterday and after I nearly didn't do it due to starting my ladies day (doh) I pushed myself to do it and glad I did, day one done, here goes road back to fitness

Brilliant. That first run is a revelation, and now it’s a journey. I gasped my way through the first run and yesterday did my w5r1 and managed to talk to my friend for most of it. The last minute did seem the longest 60 seconds ever though. I would never believe 5 weeks ago I’d be doing this. 🤗.
