Newbie!

[EleanorHolly]

Hello everyone!

My name’s Eleanor and I’m 23 years old, from Bedfordshire. I started couch to 5k late last week so am doing week 1 run 3 this evening. I used to run on treadmills a lot a couple of years ago but completely lost all of my fitness and also my figure. I’m loving couch to 5k and what it does for me mentally as well as physically. I’m doing it alongside Slimming World and I’m finding that the two compliment each other really well. Just wanted to say hello to the community! ☺️☺️☀️

Hi there! Hope you enjoy the journey. It's slightly mad but good fun and there's so much support on here!

Good luck EleanorHolly ... you’ll do fab I’m sure. It’s nice to get out running in the fresh air don’t you think. I’m on week 4 run 2 and it’s going surprisingly well... trust the app

Yeah it’s lovely! I’ve moved to a new town this year and me and my boyfriend are doing it together! We’ve found a lovely route which definitely makes it nicer and the fresh air is lovely ☺️☺️

Your doing this in perfect timing for your move. I’m sure the town your moving to has a Parkrun. It’s an amazing way of getting involved with your new community and making new friends.

Enjoy the C25K journey, losing weight alongside through slimming world will help with your running.

I’ve already moved! I moved here 6 months ago so have just been settling in and figuring stuff out. It’s lovely though. Thanks for the tips though I’ll have a look! ☺️☺️
