Got started with one of the things I want to do this year and did my first #CouchTo5K run/walk. I’m definitely very unfit as that was quite difficult.
Glad I did it though!
@jamie a lot of people say the first one is the hardest, but actually I think everything after the first one are the most difficult ones- keeping the habit up.
Well done, and I’m giving motivation for future runs

@harrybo Makes sense that each one is more difficult than the previous. At least until I get to 5K.
Thanks mate!

Very chilly this morning and tricky with some icy paths, but got my second #CouchTo5K run done!
Didn’t have any gloves so my hands were frozen by the end. Got some on order now!

@sticklandtim Thanks! This is the 3rd time I've attempted it I think. Not even got to the 5K mark before. Aim to change that this time around!

3rd run and “Week 1” done!
All of the 3 runs I’ve done so far have been 60 seconds of running with 90 seconds of fast paced walking inbetween. Today felt the easiest for me. Guess I’m ready for the next stage.

@missiongiraffe Thanks! This is my 3rd attempt at it.

️It took a little longer to complete “Week 2” of #CouchTo5K because of life things getting in the way, so those runs were more spread out. I’ve just completed the first run of “Week 3” now though!
Run - 90 seconds
Walk - 90 seconds
Run - 180 seconds
Walk - 180 seconds
Run - 90 seconds
Walk - 90 seconds
Run - 180 secondsThe last run felt the most difficult but honestly didn’t feel that bad. So much so that I was finished a little earlier in regards to distance on my usual route for this run, so I added another 180 second walk followed by another 90 second run at the end.
Feeling good!
