well done! I thought I won't be able to do it but is done and I feel great! Hopefully change will come with a time ๐Ÿ˜‰

Well done! Donโ€™t overdo it though, if you get any skinnier youโ€™ll be invisible! โค๏ธ

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.
