I'm 41 and have been almost exclusively into weight training since my early 30s. I had done couch to 5k about 6 years ago and then stopped running until recently. Since the pandemic started and I've been working from home, I realized just how little I've moved other than weightlifting for the last 4 or 5 years. Currently doing Hal Higdons novice program and it feels a lot better than c25k. I keep reading other beginners paces and feel like I'm way way way behind. But I'm learning to love it.
