Was so inspired by everyone's attempts, particularly C25k, that I hit the road with my partner (previous runner of 2 marthon's some years ago!) last evening. It was hard and I thought my chest would explode - but we did it and I'm looking forward to run number 2 tomorrow. Hope I can manage to maintain the enthusiam of the other bloggers!!!
First day, first run!: Was so inspired by... - Couch to 5K
First day, first run!


Well done and welcome, your partner should make a great mentor, enjoy, Ed x

Well done you. You've made a start which is the hardest part.
I find that I have loads more energy since I started a whole week ago!
Good luck on your next run.
Well done, the start really is the most difficult I think. Although I've just completed 2nd run of week 4. I feel so much better and more energized, both mentally and physically, I think I have got the running bug. I really did not think I could ever do this, but I am absolutely loving it. Keep it up you will too

Congratulations on getting started! I hope you really enjoy the programme, supported by your experience runner partner. I think most of us start off feeling we might need a defibrillator nearby but the programme really does work and leads you to achieve things you'd never believe possible! All the very best with C25k, and Happy Running!
Hurrah! Well done

Congratulations for taking the first steps with C25K and welcome! Gayle
