Changed my opinion of running!
I am on week 9 of this podcast so now running the full 30 minutes and am absolutely delighted with the results. I have never been a runner, considering myself built more for comfort than for speed (!), but this has totally changed that for me. I always used to be the unfit girl who was last around the track at school and who dreamed of being able to run for a mile non-stop (until this podcast I could run for about 2 minutes before I wanted to die!). I tried to take up running several times before and always went a few times, hated it and gave up. This podcast offers runs which are challenging but achievable, even for those who have literally spent years on their sofa not doing much. With every run I've felt a sense of accomplishment and have relished the challenge, always looking forward to the next one to see if I could manage that too. Sometimes there is a jump between runs where you find yourself doubting you'll be able to manage but have faith in the plan because the people that made this know what they are talking about! As long as you follow the plan and take their advice, it's all possible. I can't recommend this enough - I never thought I'd be popping out to jog for 30 minutes and coming back with a smile on my face.Read full review »

I am currently on week 5, day 1. So far I've found that this really paces you so that you are challenged but not overwhelmed. I actually look forward to my runs and get upset when it's pouring out. My friend is having me run a 5K in December so I'm looking forward to it. Great...Read full review »
