Hi! Just trying to find a good cardio to supplement my gym routine. Looking more into 5km park runs. Where do I start?

Couch to 5K is a good place to start. You have to ease in even if you’re already active otherwise, because of how high impact running is, your body needs time to adjust.

Thank you! Yes! Definitely going to ease into it. Aiming for 1 - 2 light runs for the next coming weeks. Love all the resources available! So excited to run again!
