Hi Everyone

Is it OK if I jump in here?? I've been wanting to do something like this for a while.

I did start doing a similar Couch to 5K programme on my own last year - but decided that I knew best, did too much, too soon and ended up with shin splints (v. painful).

Now that I'm no longer having trouble with shins, I feel that it's time to have another go, but this time around, although I still intend to push myself, I won't be so silly, will listen to my body and stick with the proper plan.

Anyway, I've just tried out the 'Week 1 Workout 1' on a treadmill in the gym and, although I didn't find it particularly easy, I felt comfortable and my shins are fine

As this week is almost over, I plan to start Week 1 properly on Monday
