I'm back!!!

I moved into temporary accommodation between house moves in October and, because it wasn't suitable to tun around that area, I decided not to run for the 4 weeks I was there. That was 5 months ago and I'm ashamed to say that, despite the fact that my new location is perfect for running(all flat along the sea front!) I stopped running altogether. BUT this morning I gave myself a good talking to, got out there and got myself back on track!! I must admit that I felt a bit nervous but surprisingly managed to run for 25 minutes without having to stop. I now feel motivated to get back to regular running and am looking forward to coming back to the forum to read everyone's inspiring stories and advice xxx

So glad you are back and running. Sounds lovely running by the sea too. Hope this is the first of many more runs for you. x

Wow, well done for such a good first run after 5 months off! Glad you enjoyed it. Sounds idilic running along the sea front, hopefully the nice surroundings will keep you motivated :o)

It#s very easy to lapse when circumstances change. I stopped running when I moved and was too busy with other things to motivate myself until recently. Good luck with starting again and enjoy your future runs. Best wishes.
