Great choice, enjoy the journey!

Well done ! Itโ€™s an amazing plan and itโ€™s mad how quickly you become used to running and how quickly

You can run for longer and longer ! Enjoy!

Well done and good luck! ๐Ÿ˜Š I did my second run this morning.

Started last week, it's bizarre that I am running and not feeling too much of a prune. Music is very important

Welcome to the forum and well done on your decision.

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.
