Phew! Second run done

Well I've huffed and puffed my way through run number 2 (of week 1) - found it harder this time but I think mostly because it's so flipping hot! Hoping I'll still be motivated to get out when the weather takes a turn for the worst. Finding all the posts here inspirational, so thank you. Looking forward to a restful Saturday! x

Well done. Just take each run at a slow steady pace and u will do it! Looking forward to cool weather, imagine running in the dark and even in the rain!!

Thank you! I'm going to have to rethink my route when the evenings get darker as at the moment I go down some unlit tracks and lanes, not ideal!

Well done! Take each run as it comes, some will be harder some easier. And whenever motivation wanes a little, come back here for encourgagement! Good luck with the next run :-)

Well done for starting. Slow and steady gets you there. In a couple of weeks you'll look back to Week 1 and be amazed at how far you've already come. Keep us all up to date with your news; you can do this.
