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.

Your lovely picture has reminded me how good it will be to get to the top of a hill again! I like to see myself as a hillwalker too, even though I live in the fens 😂 and keeping fit enough to struggle up a hill when I can get back to the Peak District was my reason for starting C25K in June. I enjoyed it more than expected, although it is much harder to get out in bad weather without all the walking gear!All the best with it!

This year I have really missed getting into the hills. However, I started C25k in April and I am still running twice a week, I found to my surprise that I really enjoy it!

Now if only I could run up those hills .....
