How did you go @Tashired ?

You might need to slow down.0 -
There’s people out there, they see me, I’m humiliated by my size and humiliated by tortoise speed!1

I've just started too.
Have done 2 days now.
Walking would possibly be faster, but it's a start...doing the "Pooch to 5k" with my dog, so that's pretty entertaining too - she seems to have so much fun that I have to smile. Working on her running nicely beside me though.2 -
I just did 30 mins. It went well..I felt bits of my old self in there ..but mostly walking. Feeling proud👍

Who gives a kitten what anyone else thinks?
Plus actually, no one cares or gives you a second thought Or even actually sees you.
I usually see at least one other runner when I'm out... I smile and say hello. I couldn't pick them out of a line up within 10 seconds of having passed them... I don't take notice, no one does!5
