I am due to do run 3 of week 5 tomorrow, taken me a while to get here as I have been spending longer on some weeks just to build up some skills! It’s been really reassuring reading other’s posts and be encouraged. Thank you.

Good luck for run 3 of week 5 tomorrow, just take it slowly, once you have completed it you will be very proud of yourself
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.
Good luck for your run, you’re making such good progress!
You can do it! (But you already know that 😆) pacing and mentoring yourself when it gets tough is what got me through, good luck!
Good luck for your run today; you trained hard for this and you'll be fine! I was so nervous about this run before and so incredibly happy and proud afterwards as it shows you with every single minute after the 8-minute mark how far you have come already. Have a great run!
