Started c25k again for the 3rd time this week and rediscovered the strange euphoria of running in the pouring rain!

I know I can do it and one of my best ever moments was running a very slow 10K in the very hot summer of August 2018. I feel very unfit now after a couple of injuries and general lockdown lethargy but I can feel Spring in the air now and I’m ready to get moving again ☺️

Hello sarah65. Well done for starting again! I don’t think there’ll be any stopping you 😀. I agree, running in the rain is brilliant, although it’s pouring here right now, and it’s run day. So if it stops that would be brilliant too 🤣. Happy running! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️☔️☔️☔️

Welcome back 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.
