Accountability Tweet: your friendly neighbourhood slug/potato baby has poured the gals into three (3) sports bras and is about to do run 1 of couch to 5k. If you never hear from me again I died of embarrassment/asthma or fell in the canal 
I did it! It was very manageable and I kind of enjoyed myself 
Iâm gonna keep going with it 
Iâm gonna keep going with it
Week 1, run 2 done! It was fun, delighted with myself. Gonna keep posting these updates so I have to keep it up lol
Hereâs the playlist I made for it - if you hit start on the run app and then the playlist, the run starts should time nicely

Just did run 4 of #CouchTo5K - no endorphins today. I was tired, wore too many clothes, which meant I dehydrated myself (yay for dyoralite) Iâm still glad I went but maybe running the day after working v late and sleeping badly isnât a good idea. Wednesday will be better 
Wednesday will be better
Lots of peeps getting in touch saying theyâre using the playlists - yay! Hereâs todayâs one. I make one for each run of C25k, play them in order or just copy the songs you like to your own list https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2P42BnJ8AkQZLNuX6UZZZx?si=iqK6o6UYRoKo1OTxhmAskA

Todayâs run, #6 of #Couchto5K - Looks like feck all but I felt it 
& it felt GOOD 
HOWEVER: I wanna say that a few days ago I was feeling SO bad, like full on seasonal depresh mode. If thatâs you today, sending you lots of love & please be gentle with yourself. It will pass
