WK 1 done!

Hi all, went out in the freezing night air yesterday and completed wk1. It felt great!! There were some treacherous ice patches en route which had me on the ropes cos I'm terrified of hurting my knees, but managed to stay upright throughout :) I didn't want to stop running at the last run - a far cry from run 1 last Sunday!

Can't wait for wk2!

Excellent! I found after w1 I was quite determined to stick with it. It is so worthwhile. Roll on w2!
