W1R1...again

5 Replies

well I made it to running 20 mins last year, then had back injury so stopped. Since then have moved house, undertaken major renovations, then had ankle injury from car accident. Today is finally the day my life is back to normal with house complete and ankle pain gone so back to the beginning and really delighted I managed to complete the first day without pain and too much effort!! can't wait to do the next run now, it's almost easier knowing I did it before

Well done and keep going, you will soon be back to running for even longer than 20 minutes.

Take it easy. But you know it's going to feel good, right? ! ; )
