Maggie R Aug 2015 8:36pm, 16 Aug 2015 First-time poster!!	Quote Pin Maggie R Hi, I have been doing the NHS couch to 5k podcasts which I have found really helpful. Just wondering where to go now I am reaching the end of the weeks! Still not fast or fit and still needing to lose several stone in weight......

Or do you have any local runs or parkruns? They are good for keeping focus. I myself am not fast and still need to shift more weight. You may want to see if there are any local groups too. There is a lot of support out there. Good luck and keep up the good work xx

If not try stretching the c25k by adding time on your feet (run / walking) or distance or a bit of both and build this up slowly like you have been doing. But big congratulations on getting up and out the door, keep it up you can do this well done.
