    You can do it! Week two is only just a little more challenging!

    My problem is I've had a crazy year, I was on crutches for ten months and only learned how to wALK again in the past few weeks, running is a HUGE step for me, my strength and balance are totally off and I still have soft tissue damage, I'll try week 2 today though and see if I can do it!I'll report back ;) x

    I'm in! :)
    I've just started though, just did Week 1 Day 1 on the Monday that just passed, and it feels good knowing I'm finally doing something about my running.

    There's an ongoing thread about this in the Fitness forum, here:

    The people there have just started, on Monday June 6th. Jump in! :)

    i done w1d1 last week, big fail, thought i was gonna die, i did w1d1 again yesterday with my cousin and we managed it, it was hard but we done it, this is really important for me to achieve as i suffered from multiple dvt's over the years and my first one left me hospitalized for 3 months and had to learn to walk again, 6 months ago i had problem walking the stairs or the end of the street, since then ive suffered with leg ulcers, which have now gone :bigsmile: going to do w1d2 on wednesday, we can do this !!!!

    I just started today. It went a lot better then I thought it would. I'm glad there are some other people starting it about the same time I am, I will be more willing to do the runs when I know there are other people doing it with me.

    I'll start tomorrow, and that is not a cop out, it's my hubby's birthday today and we're having a family thing tonight so tomorrow it is, I'm going to print off the timetable now!
