After a wine laden night and trying to put of this last run, I decided to go for it. As Laura began, I realised I had mistakingly put on week 9. Oh well I thought 'in for a penny....' It was very hard and the wind didn't help but it is a straight route and I did it!!! So so chuffed! and when I got back hubby mapped my route and including the brisk walk 6.3km!! I cannot believe it from nothing to now ! Quite emotional and may have a glass or two tonight to celebrate. Thank you to everyone on here, It really is a brilliant help! :)

Thank you and trust me, if I can do it.... - Week 5 and well done to you, soon you be on run 3 and that is when you realise you CAN run and you will finish this. I could not have got this far without these podcasts, if I had it, I would have paid a fortune to feel this good. Running race for life to give something back and hope to raise lots for this cause and who knows many others to follow. Good luck and keep us all posted on your weeks :)

Well done, you must feel amazing! I know what you mean about losing Laura, don't know what I'll do without her!
