Well done SteadyMan , you sound to be doing great! I am just on wk 3 day 1 and it is a big change! I am running with my son (who is usually way ahead of me) and from being a complete non runner (but cyclist) I am finding it tough but getting there.
I am trying this with my son (aged10) as a means for us both to be a bit more serious about exercise. We are only on week 1 day 2 but we are doing ok so far. I also do Zumba (which I love and highly recommend) and cycling (which I also love). I do struggle to regulate my breathing a little bit with running though - hoping it will get easier!
