Actually enjoyed a run!

Hi everyone, just thought I would share this feeling as have just done W8 R1 and after the initial five minutes which I always find hard for some reason, felt I was flying along (I wasn't I am actually very slow). However, the feeling was amazing and I wanted to let all you newbies know that I was just like you and found it incredibly hard for weeks. I just kept plodding on and read a lot of the comments on this site for inspiration. So please do keep going!

I did week 8 run 1 this morning and felt the same. Best run I had since starting out.
