I'm an overweight 52 year old woman and have never run in my life! Seriously, I used to hide behind the sports hall with a fag when we had running at school! I really want to do this but have no idea how to run breathe etc. Any help or encouragement you can send me would be great. I'm sick of saying I can't I don't want to be that pathetic person anymore and have decided to start with running God help me ha ha!

Hi Lyndsey, first congratulations for taking the first steps into the right direction. Unfortunately I can't give you any advice on breathing etc... not sure if I do it correct myself. But here's some small advice and motivation for you :) get some a recorded book for running. This way you concentrate on the story you are listening to and the run will be over in no time ;) also, don't go too fast at the beginning. You are not in a race and even at the slowest pace, you beat everyone sitting on the couch.
