W8 r1 done

2 Replies

Felt a bit despondent as found w7 r3 really hard and was hoping to see an improvement but found w8 r1 this morning went really well. At the start of the programme I was doubtful that I would ever get to 30 minutes but now I think I will achieve it! I don't think I was ever able to run for that long, even at school. Why was sport at school so dreadful? My children seem to like it now but they are still at primary.

You have done so well, its great isn't it this programme. Oh I remember those days at school, I hated everything except netball. But hey, we are runners now! Wish I had done it earlier. Good luck with the rest of your runs, nearly there! x

Well done for the first run of week 8. Best wishes.
