Back to C25K!

[Debston]

Just a gentle return, I did a Week 1 last week and a Week 2 jogette today. Very muddy in the woods so took it very slow and steady. Going to move on to Week 3 on Wednesday and if that feels comfortable, onto Week 4. It feels strange going back to intervals but I'm enjoying hearing Michael Johnson's words of encouragement again! Happy running, folks and hope not too muddy on your routes. ☺

Glad your plan is working for you!

I am so happy for you that you have returned to running, you are now rerunning week two of C25K, you ask regarding muddy routes, well I bought expensive running shoes after a gait analysis earlier in the year, I have found new tarmac routes nearby to where I live and will be running there, not on the very muddy routes I have been running around recently,

[Jazzyrunner Graduate]

So glad you’re able to get out again! Happy running to you, hope the build up you’re planning works well 👍🏻

[Oldgirlruns Graduate]

Good to hear from you Debston! Welcome back!

[DiscoRunner Graduate]

So great you’re back to running Debston & looks like the plan is working!

[Debston Graduate]

Thanks all, feels great to be back. And I forgot to mention that I was wearing my brand new long-sleeved running top - I treated myself as getting too chilly for vests!

[damienair Graduate]

Fantastic and delighted to hear your back. It’s much easier mentally coming back than going through it all the first time. Enjoy and happy running. You’ll be 100% in no time ready for the new 2020 running season.

Well done - I bought a new top yesterday, and plan on getting some decent shoes if I complete W4. Shopping is a side bonus 😉

[Debston Graduate in reply to Wenderwoo]

Ooh, new shoes - of course you'll finish Week 4! Don't forget to post a pic, we love a shoe pic... 😂 👟

Oh so good to see you back and looking super happy too hope it all goes to plan and you soon get on to the lovely longer runs with or without Michael

[Buddy34 Graduate]

Great to see you back and I hope you are well you look great. 😊😊

[Skeg Graduate]

Well done on getting back out there. Trees, no traffic to talk of (I guess) nature - nice as in very. Good luck.

Hi there, welcome back- we were both in Scotland last time we spoke I think. I too have just restarted (after back problems) & also going gently. Yay for both of us!! 😄

[Debston Graduate in reply to Elfe5]

Great that you're back in the game, hope your back behaves itself from now on. I have already booked Scotland again for next summer, I loved it so much...

[Elfe5 Graduate in reply to Debston]

Aw that’s great- I love the Highlands. We’ll be there again too, next summer. Xx

[CAFC62 Graduate]

Great to have you back. Slow and steady and you will be back to 5k in no time 👍🏻😊

[Granspeed Graduate]

Welcome back! So good to know you’re on your way again after the enforced “rest”. 🎉

[Joggingonthewildside Graduate]

Think I’ll be joining you after 3 weeks out with injury but it’s comforting to go back I think?

[Debston Graduate in reply to Joggingonthewildside]

It is a great way to ease back in, and wonderful to realise that although I have definitely lost some fitness, it's soooo much easier than when I started back in March! Hope you're back running soon. ☺

That's really good news, debs 😊
