Did y'all wait till you had lost some weight before starting C25K? I really don't want to hurt my knees or ankles by trying to run carrying 250lbs.

    Have some good running shoes. DON'T run on concrete. :smile:
    If your shins start to hurt (mine did) ease off for a few days (and use ice on them)
    There's no reason you can't to it, give it a go! xx
