I have decided to finally give this a try. I want to run and this is the most recomended program to use. I wouldn't mind having someone to discuss it with. So is there anyone else in this group that is just starting out with W1D1? or close to it?

    I'm also starting week 2 on Monday. Week one was great, honestly can't believe I did it, never thought I could be a runner.

    It takes time. 2 weeks ago I couldn't run for even 30 seconds but I pushed myself and made myself run. How about you make an extra week for yourself where you run for 30 seconds and walk for 2 minutes. That's what I have done for the last 2 weeks

    Woo hoooo! Welcome on board. I'm starting Week 2 tomorrow. Bought a high impact sports bra today (my usual one for hiking just isn't up to it - got some very big smiles off quite a few men while jogging round the park) and planning to get to a running shop this week to upgrade my old gym trainers.

    no I didn't get fitted. That's a bit out of my single mom budget right now but I hope to get some with all my bday money in august. Until then the pair I got should do the trick. If not then I will take them back and deal with my old ones until august

    single mom budget here too! I went to get fitted last night- I have been searching the internet to see if I can find them cheaper...if not, then I am saving till I can get them. Where I went, they will fit you and store it in the computer- it will be there when you are ready!

    I'm seriously thinking about going up and getting fitted tomorrow even tho the shoes I am wearing right now feel amazing. I just want to see if there is something else I need to look at ya know?
