Couch to 5K – Week 2

The first week went really well… I managed the workouts with no problem, found myself looking forward to them too!!! I think that I may add in a 4th workout each week as 3 just doesn’t feel like enough. I’m noticing that when I get up and exercise first thing in the morning, it really sets...
