Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.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.

I really am enjoying C25K, end of week six I ran/walked 4.8k including warm up and cool down.

Don't pay too much attention to your distance.

Only a small proportion of graduates from this forum who responded to a poll, managed 5k in 30 minutes by graduation healthunlocked.com/couchto5....

Graduation requirements are that you complete three thirty minute runs, regardless of distance.

I am now enjoying running more than cycling or walking long distances.
