Ok so I have completed the first week. A question for ne1. My next run starts Wednesday is it ok if I run on tuesday? I am still not smoking and thinking of going for a cycle on my off days any comments valued about this. Thankyou again for reading.

Started week 2 today a day early just could not wait I'm enjoing this program so much. I am still not smoking and not sure if my lungs have recovered from the years of abuse. I have not lost any wait but I shall weigh myself week 3 or 4 and post it. Thank you to those joining me throughout this challenge.

Week two finished and I'm feeling ok. I had some trouble with breathing today, I put this down to diet and a lack of motivation. Sore calfs from run one through six had a float around the pool and some strechers and seemed to ease the pain. Temp was 32 deg in darwin Australia and I really think I enjoyed the swim far more than the run lol. Still not smoking and still no weight loss visable so shall see after week 3. Best of luck to you all thanks for reading.

Hi again week 3 finished. I had very sore legs by the end of today and found the first 3 minute runs a challege on the lungs. I ran up small hills down them and on flat ground. I still feel as though I have still lost no weight I do feel alittle fitter. Still not smoking and really starting to change my diet. Week 4 starting Tuesday can't wait.thanks for reading.

Ok the good news I have finished week 4 and start week 5 tuesday. I havn't lost weight but I feel fit I think my body is getting stronger. No smoking at all, I think I am starting to really breath easier on the runs now. Week 5 starts Tuesday and have the first biggie Saturday, wish me luck. Does ne1 use any supplements for recovery or weight loss that have worked. My legs feel tight,I do stretch after runs.

Well done, i was delighted when i did that run! I knew for the 1st time after that run that could do it, i did doubt myself up till then. I completed the plan 2 days ago and i still find that 1st 5 minutes hard, its seems to be like a virtual pain barrier that once you pass it it doesnt seem too bad. I found though i really didnt start to lose weight till i got to around this point in the plan, i was told by various people that you tone up a bit before you lose weight, but i am losing it now. I also found week 6 a bit scary because after runs 1 & 2 they are all continuous runs, but you have the confidence from that last run to know you can do it.

Good Luck

Simon
