ok well im on week 5 day 1, completed it this morning, it wasn't too bad, week 4 was harder. Got aches in my back, calves, and now outside my right foot, gotta smile though my body is coping well carrying all that weight. not noticed any difference in body measurements yet but i definitely feel better, and the high after completing each day is superb. its funny i always post how im dreading tomorrow and then i complete it anyway, fair enough its hard but its only 1 minute at a time, one section at a time, one day at a time. i know how hard it can be to have to restart from the begining so thats what is keeping me going, i am aware that at some stage i may have to repeat a week but thats not a fail. i remember from my fit days 20 years ago how much i loved being fit and how much energy i had and i need that back.

I'm doing OK, for a 46 yr old carrying 5 stones too much. Not run for 20 years so it's not easy, but it is possible one step at a time, I break it down into 30 second countdowns in my head. Fast walk to the gym for the warm up then the rest on the treadmill followed by walk home. I've tried dieting and always pile it back on so it's this or nothing now. I will admit I'm dreading week 3 with the 3 minute jogs.

I'm an overweight runner as well, I just finished week 3 but don't see anyway to do week 4!! i just don't feel like I'm in condition to run 5 minutes at one time without feeling like I'll pass out....I guess I'll find out soon...
