Week 445 was posted by Charanjit Chana on 2026-05-08.
The NHS have a Couch to 5K app that I had downloaded previously, opened once and then never looked at again. I actually deleted it as I wasn't sure how I'd fit it all in.
Then at the end of April, I began thinking about it again. This time, I not only opened the app but put it into motion and did my first run and I'm now about to finish week 2.
It has been tough, I've never been the best of runners, but already feel that I can run more comfortably for short periods of time thanks to the program. Getting to week 9 is not going to be easy but I'm pleased that I've made a start and I intend to keep going through the whole program.
