Hi, I've just completed my first week of the app. Its been cold 🥶 but I have enjoyed getting back into running. It's helped concentrate my mind on my goal and started to improve my self esteem. I hope this feeling carries on.

Well done to you Joss178 on completing your first week of C25K in the cold weather, I am so happy to know that you are back and enjoying your runs, having a goal is a very good attitude to have, of course that goal will be to complete C25K and graduate when you are ready to run run 3 of week 9, you can take longer than 9 weeks to do so, you can repeat any runs or weeks if you wish to, no running on consecutive days as that could cause a injury, drink plenty of water to avoid dehydration, good luck, if you wish, report your progress on this forum.

Well done on making the effort to run again.

When you say you've 'enjoyed getting back into running' does this mean you used to run but have let it slip for a while? You might find some useful information in our FAQ page healthunlocked.com/couchto5... to remind you about things you may not remember.

Good luck and let us know how you get on :)

Thanks for your replies. It has felt good to feel like I have achieved something as it is easy to sit about and feel worse about yourself.
