Hi. I just started week 1 this week and enjoying it so far. Is anyone else just starting out? Would be good to have some company! I'm an unfit 43 year old, I used to run 5years ago but then lost my motivation. Am determined to get back into it. I do my running early in the morning to get it done and dusted!!

Welcome! You're in good company. I'm an unfit 48 yr old who had not been a runner in the past - this afternoon I'll be doing my third 25 min run.
This forum is a great place to get information, inspiration, and support.
Best of luck - Shari

I have just finished week three so like Catherine I'm just a few runs ahead of you. Keep posting and you'll get all the motivation and support you need.

I can't wait to hear how all three of you are doing in a few weeks.
Dunna, I laughed out loud when I read your reply. I'm so used to thinking of myself as out of shape, that it hadn't really sunk in that I can run for 25 minutes. This program is amazing.
