Welcome to the forum and well done on your intent.

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! It's an amazing programme, I hope you enjoy it as much as so many of us on here do. Like Iannoda says, make sure you read the guide before your first run, it's so important and will be a huge help to you.

Keep posting, let us know how you get on, you'll get lots of great support on here. I'm off out for my W8R1 in half an hour or so and believe me, if I can do it, anyone can!
