Happy to say I ran Week 1 Run 1 today. It was surprisingly okay, and found it only got difficult around run 5. Kept going and managed to finish it, keeping to the timings.

well done you! Keep it up . I did W1R1 today, repeating the program after a long battle post Covid. I too found the last couple of runs challenging but it was really hot!

Congratulations for taking that first step! I often say that putting on the trainers and getting out the door is often the toughest part of a run. You've done it.

All the best and do keep us posted on your progress...
