The Amazing Human Body

I am in awe of what my body can do. Week8Run1 complete. To have come through major surgery after which I couldn’t walk to my back gate and to now be running for 28 minutes is amazing. This programme is so good for your fitness, stamina and confidence. The way it slowly builds up the length of running time is very clever. Oh and Sarah Millican is my new best friend. I’m going to recommend this to everyone. Best of luck to everyone and see you all at the finish line. 💪💪

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.

We all have amazing bodies, but some people take some persuasion to believe in theirs.

Enjoy your journey.
