I can only echo the comments everyone else has made
Start off and finish up with plenty of stretching. That'll help ward off aches and pains from muscles and joints unfamiliar with being used and abused.

Start with a goal of 3km and have a rest for a couple of days before having another crack at it, but this time aim to beat your previous time. You have the advantage in that you now know you can go 3km, but you need to go faster.

Repeat for 5km, 6km, 7.5km and finally 10km.

I did it.. wuhu!

I was sweating from places I didn't know I could sweat from at the end of it..but I did it!

71minutes to do the 10km and then a "cooldown" of 5 minutes..Just goes to show that everything is possible..I might even take up religion now.

I wont be doing it again till next week though..I want to get in a 5km and do some cycling as well..Must get rid of this front hump..
