Morning, am restarting my C25K journey. Completed it earlier in the year with a 5k charity shuffle, but havent been out much since and am losing fitness and confidence. Am heading out in a wee while, starting from the beginning again.

Happy jogging πŸ˜ŠπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Just wishing you really good luck for your first run. You’ll probably find that this time round, you’ve already got skills in managing your pace and you know you’ve done it before so you’ll find it easier. That fitness and confidence will come back. Hope it goes well and the weather is good for you!

Well done and welcome back! You know the plan, and you can move forward with confidence and no pressure. Many of us have repeated this and found it so enjoyable.

Do if you have time, pop into Catch-up Corner too, to share your repeat journey?

Welcome 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.
