First run complete and now buzzing with endorphins (is that how you spell it?)

Roll on Wednesday for run no.2 😊

Ps. No oxygen required 😆

Yep, that's how you spell it. Be warned: they are the cause of the addiction. 🙃

Congratulations on getting off the couch.🥂

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.

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!
