A Sunday morning.... first 10k😀🤗👣

[limu_mu]

Hello everyone,

Happy Easter to you and your loved ones. I set out today at 7ish for a lovely run, and I did set the intent to reach 10km. Today was the day.

🌞☁️

I had to change my route due to roadworks 🏗, so up the rolling hills🎢 I went; IT WAS HARD WORK! I certainly didn't plan for this and didn't think I would make it, but the coach kept me upbeat, and I took it super easy for the first few km... 👣

I got into the flow around 6km and felt good. No niggles, just slow and gentle. The coach said you only stop when you don't start again. So I stopped for a minute to remove the layers.....Then 100m went down to 20m, and I was done. I was so happy I did a happy dance. 💃🕺🏃‍♀️ It was a sight dog walkers' won't forget soon. 😂🤣

I want to thank everyone who has reached out to help me on this journey. I couldn't have done this without your support or reading your stories. It was hard work not only covering 10k but learning about becoming a runner. Strength training, yoga and diet changes have all helped.

Enjoy your day!!!!
