Good for you! :)

Take it slow, concentrate on finishing the run, not on how fast you finish it!

You'll get there!

Enjoy your journey.

Hello Timetochangeme and welcome. You’ll find lots of kind support encouragement here, and hopefully lots to make you smile. I’d say just keep coming back to let everyone know how you’re doing, you can make the change you want happen. 😁

As everyone else has said take it slow! Do the runs in order and make sure to stretch afterwards. I did not stretch properly after the first run and was in pain the next day. Since then I spend 5 minutes doing a handful of stretches and have had no problems. The most important think is to enjoy how proud you feel after each run 😊 good luck!
