Completed week 2 run 2, myself and my partner are doing it together who thought 90 seconds running would be so tough but sticking with it ๐Ÿ˜€

My son and I are going to be doing wk 2 run 2 tomorrow! I found run 1 tough this week too, that extra 30secs really makes a difference. I canโ€™t image being able to run for 20mins straight but Iโ€™m just taking it one run at a time. The pride we feel when we complete a session is keeping us going. I just hope I can stick with it ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿผ knowing others are going through it too helps so thanks ๐Ÿ˜Š

Same here we feel pride once completed I'm trying not to think about 20 mins too just one run at a time it's good to have someone to run with I'm not sure I would keep going if I was doing it alone and I'm enjoying reading comments on here really spurring me on see you at the 5k finish ๐Ÿ˜€ we can do it ๐Ÿ‘

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.

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.
