I did it! Week 9 complete! I really can run for half an hour. Now to work on that 5k...
I'd like to thank everyone who posts in these forums. I haven't posted much myself but I have read a lot of your posts and have found them helpful. It was good to read about others experiencing the same obstacles as me and overcoming them.
Thanks all and, for those still working on it, keep going! You really can do it!
