Same here, I’m 51 and haven’t run since my teens! Just one run left in week 8, who’s have thought it? 😁

Well done , I know it's crazy. Still feels like I'm running with someone on my back though ..hope a time comes when it feels easier and then more enjoyable? I played many sports in my teens and was very fit..had a brief 6 month running phase when I turned 40 then stopped till now . Good luck
