What a great app- I’ve never been sporty or a runner but on mornings like this it’s invigorating. Hope I can keep going and complete the programme. I cannot imagine ever being able to do a 5k parkrun but boy would I be delighted if I ever get there.

Lovely view, where is that? We’re in the same boat, and I still can’t imagine finishing this, but there’s only one way to find out - keep going!

Hi! It’s near Eype in Dorset- away for a few days but wished we lived here.

I'd never been a runner either but with an amazing plan and this forum it is possible. I do believe you will take part in a parkrun and you'll love it. Well done you 😊

Wow, what a view!

It's hard to see from week 2 - I'm there with you - but look at how far we've come in two weeks... That park run is totally possible!

Yay Kipsy I was a runner until I got sick, I've tried to get back into it with couch to 5k but seem to get whacked by fatigue a few weeks into the programme let me know how you get on, park runs are a great way to start Saturdays! X

Heh Claire, didn’t know you were on here! Good to hear from you. Hope you can get back to it one day. I’m hoping to keep going as I feel more well these days than I have for 10 years. Xxx
