While working from home during covid I piled on the pounds and became very socially withdrawn. My risk of heart disease and stroke increased with my cholesterol. Joining couch to 5k was the beginning of me focusing on my health and wellbeing. The coaches and other ladies made me feel so welcome and gave me the encouragement I needed to keep turning up. I still find running a challenge but I have lost weight, feel fitter and have made new running friends for life. Completing Parkrun was a huge achievement and I can’t wait for the next program to start.
