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.

There are links to Strength and Flex in the guide.

Enjoy your journey.

Hi Newbie. Welcome and well done. I read all the advice on the forum and in how to advice links. Really helps. Keep it up. Trust the program and best advice go as slow as you possibly can. Check out the Japanese slow running video just google it sorry not techie enough to post link. Maybe someone else can.

Have fun. 😀
