Just started this week. I'm slightly overweight and utterly unfit! Can I do this ..... 

I've signed up for a 5K in December giving me 9 weeks to train.

Anyone want to join?

Can I join? Did W1R1 today & hoping to do day 2 tomorrow.

I only managed the first 2 running sections of w1 r1 and walked the rest. Have a horrible cold and just didn't feel up to it. Will try again tomorrow!

Hi all, did the first run of week three today, and struggled on the three minute run (on a treadmill), and didn’t actually complete them. Felt really upset afterwards, and such a failure.

I will try to persevere though, and even if I do week 3 for five weeks in a row(ie, until it feels easier), at least i’m Doing 30 minutes exercise.

i've done it several times and it does work so toying with it again, but at 55 and two stone overweight I think it will be too much. Sadly, have never caught the running bug and once I've got to 5K and done the race, I just stop. total waste of effort but I would be lying if I said i enjoyed it

Just starting week 3 (on a treadmill), away for a few days so will do Run 1 tomorrow and then wait until I'm back on Thursday.
