W2 r1 - feeling chuffed!

So this morning was the first run of week 2. Felt really nervous and having done week 1 twice I was half thinking 'should I do it 3 times?' But decided I'd go for it and am so pleased I did. It was actually much easier than I'd anticipated and my brain liked the idea of 6 runs rather than the 8 of w1, so I kind of tricked myself that it was less ;) My daughter runs with me on Sundays and it's a real bonus having her there at the beginning of a new scary week. Am feeling super chuffed with myself now. I did it :D yay!! Happy happy!!

great to read everyone else's progress on here too which is so inspiring and helpful. Thankyou!!

Well done! Take care out there but do have fun. Slow and steady is fine

Thanks for the advice. I think my post was a bit confusing... When I said I've done w1 twice I meant 2 weeks of week 1 so 6 runs, not just 2 runs. I am taking it slow n steady... Tortoise by name... And by nature!! I am already thinking it will take me more than a week to do week 2... But the plodding tortoise does get there in the end ;D
