Hello! Just done first run... That was harder than expected!

Post by KBird »

I have to admit, I was expecting an easier time of it. I just read a couple of posts from runners at week 6 and its put the fear of god into me!

If a minute of running leaves me gasping for breath how hard will 25 be?!

My girlfriend (wife in 6 weeks!) runs already but she goes fast, so I need this little friendly app to keep me company. I do hope I stick with it....

You can do it :-) I was exactly the same, now I'm on wk 6! The main thing that keeps me going, is the competition.....with myself! Get the breathing right and follow the program and you'll do it. Good luck in your own mission :-)

I'm so happy to read your post. Today was my first run and it was harder than I expected. I'm looking forward to the next one though.

I felt the same way after the first run, but I just ran my first run of week 5 and I feel great! It's amazing how tolerable it becomes! Stick to it, and congrats on your impending marriage!
