Week 1 in The Bag!

[forr3suk]

I have to say I have enjoyed week 1. I have my own little route which I am using for C25K and think that has helped me somewhat.

Looking forward to week 2 now and just hope it goes as well as week 1

Does anyone use any other running apps alongside C25K? I use Strava and also Relive. Probably just the geek in me for relive

Strava is very popular here 🙂 I just ran with the podcasts and didn't worry about anything else til after graduation when I treated myself to a Garmin

Keep going, slow but sure, and you'll be fine. No need to push things at all

Don't get to hung up on time and distance at this early stage, just go out there and enjoy it, watch the progress increase Week by week.. 👍🏻🏃

Agree entirely, we see loads of posts from people worried about distance, time, speed, splits and in the early days, they are pretty much unimportant and can cause far more concern than they warrant. Chill take your time work out what's a comfy pace and do it your way.

Well done for completing week 1! 😁

When I first started, I just had the podcasts on my tiny iPod shuffle and mapped my routes on MapMyRun when I got home. Then I bought a waist belt and started using Strava alongside the podcasts. I was doing it with a friend in another part of the country,so we used Strava to keep track of each other!!
