I am shattered, exhausted, stiff and wet ( been raining!) but have now done week1day 3!! Boy am I tired but happy:-) did it after a 16km bike ride too:-)

Motivated by a friend whose done iron man but learned a lot about my gait, posture and breathing. I also learned that I can run lightly if I try! Looking forward to a day or rest tomorrow I can tell you!:-)

Well done, MBM! :-) That's Week One completed; probably the most difficult week, with it being so new to you and in terms of motivation, as deciding to take the programme up and get out the door in the first instance takes more effort that one first realises! Keep it up and good luck for week two! :-)
