I know everyone says this but if I can do it you can too! Get your music going and into your own flow! Positive running vibes headed your way

I did it! Can't believe how unfit I am but feel nicely smug now. Anyone else starting today?

Thanks for the tip about music, I'll try that out next time.

Hi all!
Today was Day 1 for me and as much as it kicked my butt, it felt great! I am trying to get back in shape after having my son. He's 7 months old and I feel like it's time to stop making excuses and get out there. Has anyone done a run while pushing a stroller? I'm thinking my son might be good motivation and enjoy it as well :)

Just completed my second run of week 2 yesterday :) thought it would be harder this week, but trying to pace myself so no injuries. Can't believe it actually the app really helps and I love the coaching element of letting you know supportively what you still have to run etc.

Well done Chamoisk, what a great goal. I've just completed week 3 but suffering bit with painful calf not enough stretching I think. Good luck for your next runs. :)
