Change4life. Dry January.
Hi to anyone preparing for giving up drink from January or just needing help getting time.
Here in the UK the NHS has an app that we've used called couch to 5k, getting my wife Emma to run for the first time since school she's 48 and just done a 10k charity race.
On there website they also do other things food etc and sensible drinking, now this is based for normal people who are not in our position but they have started there Jan free month. Sign up and it gives extra help emails texts ect.
It may help and getting a full month in I remember really well as being vital.
Have a look it may help.
Regards John.

I've never personally used the couch to 5k program, but I know a number of people who have successfully done so. Good luck to you and your wife. FWIW, at the age of 51 my wife, who never ran before, asked me to train her for a half marathon. We now do a couple a year together.
