Yep, that's how you spell it. Be warned: they are the cause of the addiction. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

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.

Enjoy your journey.

Ah fantastic SueyC. Those endorphins are such a great feeling. Gives you such a warm, glowy, high. Well done! :-) x

Ahhh, I'm so excited for you embarking on your running journey :) It's hard work but it's worth it! Every run you do makes you fitter, stronger and faster, which is of course great - and then you have the endorphins :):):) Enjoy!
