After having the C25K app sitting on my phone.....OMG that was such hard going. But wow I feel amazing having survived. 🏃🏻‍♀️👍😅

Getting out the door and doing that first run is the hardest part. Just go slow and make sure you try to drink 2-3 litres of water per day and not just on run days. C25k is an amazing plan and really does work you'll get lots of encouragement and support on here good luck 😊😊

Brilliant, well done! When I started I couldn’t believe how quickly I was so addicted, so excited to be doing it! Enjoy it 🏃🏼‍♀️

[Dirty-dancing in reply to Jazzyrunner]

Thank you. I know right... I am buzzing.

well done - that's the hardest run - I echo what buddy said about the water - work out how many hours a day you are awake and divide 2 litres up - it's probably only half a glass an hour - much easier to drink like that - plus it's better to spread it over the day rather than guzzle it down in big drinking sessions

[Dirty-dancing in reply to backintime]

You see that’s sounds much easier. Cause the thought of all that water does not excite me! However if it was something a little stronger.....😜😂

[backintime Graduate in reply to Dirty-dancing]

hmmmm - not sure adding whiskey helps the hydration

I have my eldest's birthday tonight - 17 years old - so I am having one drink to celebrate that I managed to drag my son up to 17 without needing a psychiatrist

😀😂😂 I know what you mean. Can’t believe my daughter is 21 this month. I need therapy.......running should do it? 🤔😀
