I was dreading this one and instead I ended up grinning all the way round my route. I kept the pace nice and slow after reading all the advice given to others. I actually ended up running for at least 6 mins on the first 5 min block bc the app had crashed (again π) but I wasn't out of breath at any point my legs kept going without me shouting at them. I even got a bit of a lump in my throat as I was on my return leg bc I was so so so chuffed with myself. And I was buzzing all evening with pride and astonishment. And even though I took it real easy as advised my pace was quicker again.. I suppose purely bc I was running more than I was walking. But I'm more than happy to keep the genteel pace for now. GO ME!! π€£ And to those that take the time to write advice to various people on here please keep it up... it really does make a difference... to me at least, so thank you! βΊ

Well done! Iβve just joined here today. Going to start the couch to 5K on Saturday. Slightly nervous, but canβt wait to give it a go and get this weight off. π

Great job, you have lots to be proud of. Slower pace is the best way... youβre doing really well.

Even if we're going as slow as snails it's ok because our legs keep going! Well done!
