Morning all, new on here.

Running for me has always been something that only super fit people can do. I would watch people thinking to myself i wish i could do that. It always looks like such a great way to relax and take in the world around you.

Thanks to Couch25k i am on my own little journey to become one of those people.

Just completed wk3 r1. So so proud that i actually managed to run for 3 mins without stopping. I actually felt i could go for longer. Looking forward to r2&3 of this week.

Have a good day

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

Stick to the plan...........it works.

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.
