I'm off the couch again, W1R1

Well after a few sessions on the 30 day shred DVD, and quite a bit of faffing around, I eventually got outside this morning for W1R1. It was all so familiar, Laura's dulcet tones and the music! Happy to say that aerobically I did fine but I definitely felt the stretch and impact of running so I'll be keeping on with the 1 minute runs this week!

So good to get out again😄

Thanks! You're right - felt so good to actually do it rather than just think about doing it. Oh why do I take so long to talk myself round?! Onwards and upwards...

Welcome back. You missed Laura too much didn't you? That's really why you've come back.

Thanks! It did make me smile to hear her voice again but do look forward to using my own soundtrack further down the line!
