Motivated

Just moved to week 2, run 1 completed this morning 🌄 🙌 9 weeks and 5k seems so far away but the personal goals have been set and Steve 'the voice' Cram is pushing me on... let's do this together ❤️ 💪

I’ve done this before and I can definitely confirm it is doable - it’s almost like magic. I hadn’t ran since school the first time I did it - now I’m back at week 1 after a significant ACL injury, and am keeping the faith. I have Steve Cram too this time, he wasn’t an option previously for me, but I think he’s really encouraging. Best of luck, you definitely can do this 🙌

Welcome and a great start to the programme!

Have you read the programme guide?

healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

It's packed with really helpful information to guide you through the programme.

Also, don't worry about 5k,

Despite the name this programme is about getting you running for 30 minutes non stop !

Very few will reach 5k in that time .

Have a look at this .

So just relax and enjoy the journey!

Together is the name of the game - we all have the same goal.

We can all do it, I got out again today, Steve 'the voice' Cram tried to persuade me to have a rest day, but I'm so MOTIVATED at the moment I just keep going

Fantastic

Please listen to Steve Cram and read the info posted by Instructor57 above. As a person new to running, it’s vitally important to take your rest days to help your body repair. Running too hard, too fast, too often can lead to time wasted on the Injury Couch.

Enjoy your running and please be careful 🏃🏽
