I have just got some my protein velocity sculpt support bras which are quite good (and on sale atm!) but I'm not that big so not sure how much support they would offer if you really need it.Side question does anyone know good sports-bras for running? I’m mostly running in some high impact ones from VS but anything more than 30mins and the straps get really uncomfortable.
I’m quite big, so most I’ve tried so far haven’t been very good. They need to offer A LOT of support
sorry i wish I could help here but i have zero boobs so can get away with lower support ones.Side question does anyone know good sports-bras for running? I’m mostly running in some high impact ones from VS but anything more than 30mins and the straps get really uncomfortable.

I have started couch - 10k! I am doing a half marathon in May and haven't properly ran since February so finding it a bit hard but on week 2 and already finding it more bearable/enjoyable. I go before work in the morning because I don't like running alone in the dark but it means I run on an empty stomach, which so far is fine as I used to go to the gym and work out on an empty stomach then have breakfast when I'm home and I have some gel pods to have if I feel I need anything! Any tips for breathing though as I find it almost forget to breath sometimes!
i LOVE this idea, I'm running to christmas songs at the moment so I can spread christmas joy all over as I run!I use Runkeeper, would be far too shamed to use something that would show all how slow I am
Sing - it helps to regulate your breathing. I'm the same
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!Just completed my first ever sub 30 min 5k (29:40)

Awwww you just did an amazing thing! I remember after my first half I was crying so much from all the emotion a lady came over to check whether I was okay and gave me the biggest hug. I had a pretty good cry around 30km in my first marathon too when what I was doing finally hit me.MorningI started running since the start of the first lockdown and my goal was to run the miles of a half marathon and yesterday I ran my longest run ever 13.5 miles but all last night and this morning Iv been a tad emotional the slightest little thing and my eyes are filling up. There is absolutely no reason for feeling this way, has it anything to do with my run yesterday??
Thank you so muchAwwww you just did an amazing thing! I remember after my first half I was crying so much from all the emotion a lady came over to check whether I was okay and gave me the biggest hug. I had a pretty good cry around 30km in my first marathon too when what I was doing finally hit me.
Let yourself feel the emotion. It may not make sense to be crying but it's your body's way of releasing all the emotion that went into the training and race.
Also congratulations!!!
I cry a lot after running - I think there's something about achieving something I never thought I'd be able to do, but cried after pretty much every 10km, and a lot after my first half!Awwww you just did an amazing thing!

Welcome! I think Couch 2 5k is pretty good in general, I'm not sure how the NHS may differ from the one I know. There are a couple of big jumps that we've discussed in the program above so don't be afraid to add in extra weeks or repeat weeks until you feel comfortable. If you want more personalised programming I'm happy to chat to you more, I've finally finished my uni so have been relaxing by writing programs for peopleThis thread has made me want to try running again, especially as my gyms are closed! Definitely going to start with couch to 5k, that's how I started before albeit in the gym many years ago. Do you all just recommend the nhs one? Going to go out for my first run (in about 8 months) tomorrow!
That is so lovely thank you! I may take you up on that when I'm more into the swing of things! I have seen from people that they add in extra weeks and honestly that's amazing advice, don't know why I didn't think of doing that when I did it the first time round, some of the jumps between the weeks are hard!Welcome!
