Run 2.... Tick. Still panicky after 1st 2 runs but then felt calm and relaxed which was really pleasing. Run 3 tomorrow. Been eating sensibly so we'll see... Thanks for your support . The stiffness from 1st running for ages is wearing off too.

Have tried C25k before in the last few years. Currently heavy and unfit. Started again today after a tough year when I developed severe anxiety and panic attacks. Because I felt like I couldn't breathe I stopped exercising as I used to panic when I got out of breath. I have had some CBT, started HRT and today I just went for it. Had a scary wobble after run 3 but it passed. Am now hot, sweaty and red but feel like I am on my way back. Looking forward to run 2(I think!!!) the breathing advice in this forum was really helpful so thank you xx
