Finished Run 3 of Week 1 of Couch to 5k in early morning sun with not a dog-walker in sight in the park. Feeling really chuffed with myself mentally but will my knees take another 8 weeks of it!

You go go go Papa D!!! Well done 👍👍👍👍 it's an awesome feeling isn't it! I'm only at the end of week 2, and I learned that if you feel uncomfortable in any way, just slow down... You are still moving faster than that couch..... You can do this!!

Well done.

Follow the advice in the guide to the plan on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.
