So did run1 of wk4 on Tuesday this week and was due to complete run2 yesterday but family like took over so couldn't do so I planned for tonight and yet again something happened. I have made arrangements to go out tomorrow morning but I am sitting here feeling very guilty and feel I have let myself down

Hey ! Stuff happens...The important thing is not to have bad feelings about what's happened because that's in the past now, but make a positive plan for doing the run in the future. Whether that's tomorrow or the next day or the next, you've done well to get to week 4 and that's nearly half way !!

Sometimes things get in the way. But you will get out and do W4R2 soon, so don't worry. Just schedule it in for as soon as is reasonable.

Ah you see what you did though, you excused yourself from your run and then sat at home worrying about it. You might as well have done the run and saved yourself the guilt. It's like ringing in sick! Get out there asap and you'll be absolved

Happy running

Im absolved - I did the run this morning - took the plunge and did a new route as well and loved it I actually found myself lost in looking at the new surroundings - I cant believe its me I am 47 next Saturday and have never felt as good about exercise

oh and 3 of my friends have now downloaded the app because they say I inspired them
