Don’t want to be a professional just want to be fitter and healthier!

My blood pressure was verging on needing medication.
i decided I would try to make physical differences to stop me having to have medication.
I started by finding walking fit apps and videos.
I am now on week 6 of Couch to 5k but I would like more “safe places” to run in. I’m slow but trying to build resilience.
I also attend Get Up and Go Circuit sessions on a Thursday evening in Jubilee Park which is helping me build muscle and stamina.
I’ve bought an electric bike and I am trying to cycle/walk more than taking the car so much.
Trying hard to be fitter and healthier!

Well done, Helen, you’re doing great!
Regards safe running - do you know about parkrun? That’s a safe, supportive place for you and there is no pressure at all to be quick, indeed, some walk it. Details of Havant parkrun: https://www.parkrun.org.uk/havant/
