Hello! I just started last week and am now on my 1st run of week 2. Did you have a good first run?
Hey yep it was ok walking and running !! Breathing seems to be my problem getting out of breath. How was urs π
I had a good run today thanks. My 'run' is more like , well actually I don't know how to describe it but it's not really a run. It's between a fast walk and a slow jog!! My heart rate is definitely up but I don't get too breathless. I'll be rooting for you π

Welcome to the forum and well done on getting started.
You say you have trouble breathing..........you are going too fast.
Say this sentence out loud to yourself "Am I going slow enough to enable me to speak this sentence in one out breath?" If you cannot, you are going too fast.
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.
Me! Newbie to this programme. Did day 1 and really enjoying it. Good luck on your journey!
