Hi having had the app on my phone for a little while and not actually used it, I thought I would give it a go. Managed to complete the run without feeling too bad, but let's wait and see how I am feeling in the morning

Welcome and well done... I had a different running app installed for a year before hitting start... that sucked and then I got the C25K app and haven’t looked back. You can do this... enjoy.

Well done and keep following the programme! Remember to jog slowly and take the rest days, good luck.

Well done!

My first run was a huge effort and the next day I was rather sore, but take a rest day and continue with the plan, you will amaze yourself at how quickly your body builds up stamina!
