What's happening to me......?

[MelB82]

Hi everyone, I completed WK 3 run1 today, and I loved every minute of it. Yeah I'm finding it tough, but once I got going I really enjoyed it. (This sounds so strange as I have been "anti" running for so many years).

I am recovering a lot quicker after a run too so find myself chomping at the bit for the next one. (Yep it's true).

I think my enthusiasm has finally rubbed off on my hubby as he went for a run today. He is convinced he doesn't need a podcast to tell him what to do, but I'm sure I'll convince him that Laura is a running goddess and a necessity!!! Haha

Well thats enough from me. thank you for your continued support and good luck to everyone this week.......................Keep running

Brilliant! So pleased you are loving it...but be warned - your life may never be the same again!

My husband is the same - refuses to listen to the experts and insists on running to his own schedule (which is basically when he feels like it, for as far as he feels!). I loved the podcasts because I'm anal and need to know that I've ticked the boxes and done a proper job.

Long may you enjoy your running!

Well done you!! Excellent news! I'll use your post as a source of inspiration for my first week 3 run tonight. Good for you!

hope you got over the shock of the longer run. good luck tonight and I hope you don't have to deviate too far away from your route.

Good luck. As long as you pace yourself you'll be fine. Looking forward to hearing all about it.

Hi mel

I did the same Wk3R1 yesterday and found it difficult but achievable. I was recovering better and my legs feel less achey too.

I'm not ocnvinced that I'm metamorphosing into a runner just yet especially after Laura's comments about people behind hedges not being able to tell the difference if I was running or walking - eh he

See you out on Tues. Good luck

[MelB82 Graduate in reply to marcosan]

I'm chuckling away because I had the same reaction to the hedge comment. I found myself staring into anything reflective along the run to see how "bouncy" I was!!

See you Tuesday......good luck

I'm still looking for reflective surfaces and I graduated a week ago!

Be warnedl, full blown addiction is just around the corner.

I've hated running my entire life thanks to an evil gym teacher. Did this programme and now a certified addict!

Good luck for tonight, see you on the other side
