If this had happened first time round 😱

Confessions first. After running regularly from April 2018 to December 2020 I suddenly stopped 🤷‍♀️. Started again on 17th July and skipped a few so did W5R3 today - even the second time round it felt it might be a challenge. Especially since the last I heard of Sarah was to say you’ve done 5min! I’d just read yesterday about the flakey app (I may not have run but I didn’t abandon my vrb role 😆). Luckily this time round I had tech on my side so finished the 20 minutes and 2.7k so very happy with that. So too is Mr Garmin who thinks I’m under 40 😂. I’ve read about so many people on their second time round and I have to admit I’m enjoying it 😊

Thank you. In my head I thought I’d be ok but wasn’t sure my body would comply. 🤞🏻 for the weeks to come.

There are lots of comeback runners on here. I was the same and redid part of c25k and now working back up to 10k. It feels great to be back though, doesn't it? Onwards!!! 💪🏃‍♀️

There does seem to be a lot of us - I wondered if I was just noticing it as I knew I’d be back? It feels good. May not go back to 10k but then again I swore I’d no interest in doing it first time round!! 😂 Hope you get there though.
