My third day

[Runningbird1]

Hi, I've just joined this community. I think it will be nice to share my ups and downs. I've just completed my 3rd day in couch to 5k. I'm very proud of myself. It's a big achievement for me.

Thanks for reading this. 😊

Welcome to the forum and C25K Runningbird1, I hope you enjoy your running, remember to take all the runs slowly, you can repeat any runs or weeks, no running on consecutive days as that could cause a injury, drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration, onwards and upwards to week 2, if you wish, report your progress on this forum, we are all here to help., good luck 🏃✅

Thanks for the advice. I'll definitely take it slow(ish) as I've never run before 😄

I'm two running days ahead of you, runningbird, so glad of company. Good luck with the programme. From past experience I know it works.

Thank you. I know we can do it! Just have to tell my knee it. It's a bit stiff. Lol
