Still in shock that I managed to run for 20 minutes. Normally run at lunchtime (I’m not a morning person) but as it’s so hot went out earlier. It was tough but so pleased with myself πŸ˜€

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.

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 5, that is a milestone run with C25K, onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3 which you have just ran πŸƒπŸΎ 😊

Well done. It is a tad warm out there for a afternoon run.

Your progress is such, that you should be graduating around the time our lads are hopefully lifting the trophy. YNWA.

Thanks. Just a shame we won’t get a parade 😒. This time last year I was flying to Madrid πŸ†
