Sorry to hear you're feeling crap! It always comes at the wrong time and does you over! Well done for persevering :D Now, you ARE ahead of me. I am really struggling to get up so early in the mornings, but it's in the head as much as the body. I am having a battle with my boss at work which is reall...

Well that was a surprise!!!.......turfed myself out in the rain hoping for the run not to feel too hard after my gap and the lady told me I was on Week 3 !! I thought 'well I'm here might as well do it' .....and did it :)) The first long run was tough because it's all uphill, but I kept going. The s...

Pretty much failed this weekend. Still needing to do Wk2 r3!! It will be in the morning now. Hey ho - as long as I do it. We went for a celebratory meal out yesterday and the celebrations continued!! Definitely going in the morning. Hows about you, you have probably overtaken me now and can tell me ...

Hi, just a quick check in. Should have done wk2 r3 yesterday morning but failed to get up. I had been awake from 1.30am until 5 ish .....oh how it hurt when the alarm went off at 6 :( And this morning I have to leave any minute to take students to an exhibition!!! Planning to do it when I get back b...

Yayy us indeed :D I use the JVC hook over earphones for the same reason, love the loud tunes to drown out the huffing and puffing, and I just tuck the phone in my bra for easy access - I'm sure it's not recommended but it works!! Wow, you are a busy girl with 6, well 5 to look after, I appreciate it...

Well done you! It's quite a feat to even get this far, I feel. I also felt quite emotional on my first day, I think it's the realisation that it is achievable. What time of day are you running? I have to go before work, so set my alarm for 5.50am and go out about 6.15. I have to say I don't notice t...

Hey, very well done to you LinP !! It makes you feel that you wish you'd started before doesn't it? I'm only 2 runs ahead of you so it's great to have some company :D I head out for wk2 run 1 in the morning. I can't say that I have found it easy BUT I feel very confident that it will be do-able. It ...

Hello :) I'm brand new too, I saw your post last night but was too tired too reply!! Yesterday was my first run. I have had the app on my phone for at least 6 weeks. I was scouring the internet looking for answers to my question ' am I too fat to run' I came across another web-site which also has an...
