I have had so many health issues over the last couple of years, and it's only since recently we discovered what one of the things was that has been causing this.

It appears I have flexible joints. The ligaments between my joints get inflamed rather fast so I basically have to work out on a daily base to make and keep them nice and strong! :)

Among many other things my doctor told me to do for my knee aches, was running.

Now I've never really liked running but since I was going to do this, I decided to look for a decent start to run program and that's where C25K came in!

I installed the free version on my phone (android) and out I went! It guides you through and it builds up nice and slow at the start. I also absolutely love the design!

One tip though...
If I remember correctly going from week 4 to 5 was a bit heavy so I ended up doing week 4 twice.

It's a matter of listening to your body and to take a bit more time when needed! We don't want to make it worse after all now do we?!

Good luck and let me know when you decide to try it out and how it worked out for you!
