I have tried C25K once before and gave up. I am now the heaviest I have ever been and have decided to give it another go. I did my first session the other day and I have NEVER FELT PAIN LIKE IT! I still ache now! I think I may have figured out why I gave up last time lol! I have something else pushing me this time. I went to the Drs a few months back and she told me my blood pressure was slightly high. I shouldn't have high blood pressure at 27!
So thought I'd say Hey to anyone out there at 23:49 on a Wednesday. Just trying to busy my hands so I don't wander into the kitchen and food accidentally falls into my mouth!

If it hurts jogging try just walking the whole time until it gets easier. I'm following the C25K and I swear my walking is faster than my jogging. But I feel your pain, today my thighs are like "omg girl what have you done to us" 😱
I'm actually ran outside yesterday when I normally use the treadmill. But the sun was shining.
