W6R1 but a newbie on the forum

[five_a_day]

Have just joined the forum having dipped in and out for a while. Started the programme in May last year and got as far as week 7 then stopped (head gremlins I think). Started again at week 6 on holiday in Bordeaux last August (running through vineyards - nice) and got as far as week 8 when I got home then stopped again (ankle and hip pain). Started again last month at week 3 and got up to W5R3 on Monday - enjoyed it! W6R1 tonight and think have banished the head gremlins - so many inspirational comments on here from such lovely people have helped with that! Determined to graduate this time but taking it easy for the leg )))

Great stuff. Those head gremlins are a nightmare. Good to hear you've finally kicked them out.

Well done for taking up the challenge again, take it slowly and follow Laura. I think by week 9 Laura will have planted the running bug in your head, she have with me I'm addicted. Good luck with the rest of the program happy running.

I love Laura and its the best thing I have done, used to do circuit training before and various other classes but I've got to say running is not a chore but pleasure and I also swim twice a week too this helps my poor lungs. So keep up the great work x

Sounds like it's going to be third time lucky! Good for you for giving it another go. I'm in Week 7 and hoping to make it to the end...

Thanks all - looking forward to tomorrow's run and you have spurred me on even more. Love Laura and the music. Can't quite remember when "Julie" appears but it must be soon - if I recall "she" is with us for 3 (?) runs so that might be 7th time round for me for that one - eek!
