I am a 72 year old male.
I’ve not run seriously for 60 years.
I was anxious this morning as I put on my newly acquired running shoes!
I did the first session with Michael Johnson and I felt so elated even though it’s only the first time.
I want to know how people felt after their first time and what may lie ahead!

Wow respect
We were 63 when we started and it nearly killed us I was puffing like a steam train and Willow was bent double gasping for breath,
a year later Willow can run for about half an hour and I can jog on slowly for an hour or more so it just shows what a great plan it is
Good luck, have fun and post your runs so we can cheer you on
