Week 1 Run 2

Hi everyone . Have been a member of this group for quite a while but never posted! You guys are so encouraging on this forum and hopefully i can be too one day. So today is my first post. Woohoo!

Just finished my second run of the week. Found it easier than the first one. Realised i need to slow down and not try to zoom off in the running sections.

I have completed this program before and reached the 5k mark a few times previously ( its a brilliant program that really works) , but have had a few set backs recently like a sprained ankle and trapped nerve in my shoulder.

So here's to starting again and running those happy miles again.

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

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

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

Enjoy your journey.
