I am on a roll....

8 Replies

Well, not quite! I'm on a run/walk/run etc!!!

Again, it was raining but that was the only 'hitch' this time! (I actually loved it!) My daughter and I had a lovely run through the local park along with the local wildlife.

I am starting to enjoy this exercise lark but do realise it will get harder as I go....

Happy running everyone!!

the sense of achievement wouldn't be so great if it was easy :) this program is as much a mental challenge as a physical one ...

trust in the program and yourself lucy :D

Thanks Slow_Rob,

I think the mental struggle is much worse than the physical...so far!

I will have to keep on believing...

Well done you! I am about to go out on my second run of week 1 but for some reason am procrastinating.think it's because I'm not squeezing in runs between work as I'm off all summer.I have all day to decide when to run which perhaps isn't good at just getting me out there.oh well,think I'll go and find my trainers... ☺️

Hi farawaytree...

Thanks!

I hope you stopped procrastinating and went out to run!

I am sure we will both 'graduate' in the end!

Hi Lucy,

I did stop procrastinating and did the run.found the first two runs hard but then it got better the more I loosened up. Can't imagine being able to ever run for 30 mins but other people do it so onward and upward. Keep going and keep enjoying! 😊

Hi farawaytree74

Well done on getting out there!

Someone posted to me not to think of the bigger goal - just small steps else it will put you off!

Good advice for me!
