If you're using Couch to 5k, stick to flat routes where you can - I started by doing a forest train near my house that winds up through the Clyde Valley and I was gubbed, because I was doing time of run + elevation change and was buggered after the first run!

I've had a bad few weeks - friend's wedding, holiday away for a long weekend in London - so I'm back at it again as of tomorrow. I had shifted 1 stone, but it's probably mostly gone back on again!
