Finished my first week today, been easier than expected, but I am fully aware that it may not always be that.
I am now 50 and have had the app on my phone for a couple of years, bought a treadmill on Ebay and made a start. Overweight and a Diabetic I really need to get fit and increase my life span. Looking forward to running around the Norfolk broads.
Brilliant. If this was easier than expected, then you're going to do really well.
Week 1 run 1 nearly destroyed me 😆
Happy running and keep posting

Well done for getting started 😊 and completing week 1 😊
My OH being diagnosed as diabetic was what shocked me into taking a long hard look at myself - and I didn't like what I saw! It made me realise I was going the same way. That was 2 years ago now, and having found the NHS weight loss site (sister site to c25k) I am pleased to say I'm over 6 stone lighter, fitter and healthier than I've ever been, and c25k is my new challenge, having turned 50 last year.
Good luck with improving your health - I can recommend it 😊
Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

Enjoy your journey.
Good for you, keep going. 👍 (And the Norfolk Broads sounds lovely and flat!)
Thanks all, I think being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes may be a blessing in disguise, my dad died from a heart attack at 61, I think my body was/is in a worse condition than his was, so being diabetic made me make some serious changes to my life which C25K is the biggest change and the best thing for a diabetic can do to start changes to my life expectancy, it really is a life or death option and I am embracing it with a true determination and excitement to change that has even surprised me.
