Finished Week 1

So I started my C25K Journey on Tuesday and today I finished Week 1 (I know it should have been Saturday I ran but I was busy!)

Feeling like I've achieved something already. Day 3 was (dare I say it) a breeze. Not sure how I'll cope with the step up on Tuesday but we'll see. I know I've only just started but I'm beginning to feel slightly obsessed with running. I had been wanting to run for a while and it was reading "Running Like A Girl" by Alexandra Hemingsley that finally made me take the plunge properly!

I'm hoping my enthusiasm carries me to w9d3!

Well done! That sounds like a book I should read :D

Well done! I am about to start week 2 tomorrow as well. Week 9 seems a long, long way off but I'll be really chuffed if I complete it. Good luck for tomorrow. :)
