Week 1 Run 1

5 Replies

Run 1 yesterday with my daughter Laura. I’m 54, she’s 26. So far, so good. Found it okay. Legs are a little achy this morning but looking forward to run 2 tomorrow.

You’re off the couch and on the plan - it’s a great feeling isn’t it Wattytoofatty! Take it slow, really slow, stay hydrated and read Iannoda Truffe’s pinned post for newbies and you’ll be fine! And let us know how you get on as well!

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

and includes links to stretches that are recommended to be done after every run.

Enjoy your journey.
