Hi All

I joined up properly yesterday and would love some friends to keep me motivated!

A bit about me... I live in Wales and I am 40(almost 41 :ohwell: ). I completed the NHS couch 2 5k 2 weeks ago and I am focusing on building my speed now. I walk my dog every day for around 25-30 mins as well.

I am not trying to get into a Size 10, if I couldnt do it in 40 years it aint gonna happen now! What I would like though is to lose at least 2 stone so i can fit back into my wardrobe full of clothes.

I know i will need help and I'm hoping some of you will add me as a friend to keep me on track

Thanks
Donna

    i joined yesterday and I could also use everyone to add me. I am 52 and have been working on power 90 for 2 weeks. I started the couch to 5k today. I had a lot of trouble with it and could not do the whole thing. I have asthma and had a bad attack halfway through (even on the meds to prevent it) So far I have lost 7 lbs since Jan 1st. I have a lot of weight to lose. I am 203 today.
