Week 5 Run 1

[MeganSawford]

No problems. Even managed to get my Mum to do week 2 at the same time so we could do the warm up and cool down together!

Well done! I like the fact that you took your mum along. It's so lovely having someone to run with. Will she carry on with the programme too?

Yea, it really helps me to get the kit on and start which for me is the most challenging bit!

She does intend to, although she's taking it at her own pace - week 2 twice more, then week 3, then "we'll see". But she's definitely improving her fitness, so I'm proud of her

Tell her to keep it up. I am 55 and have one run to graduation. Never would have thought myself capable of it, yet here I am. Best advice for a more mature lady (!) is; keep the pace slow and steady, stretch out after every run and don't ignore any aches and pains. I wish you both every success xx
