Finally made the move and put my trainers back on

So after not running for over a week I finally found the motivation today to go out and do week 6 run 1. It was a struggle at first but once I got going I loved it and even did a bit extra running towards the end hopefully can keep it up ☺

Of course you can. Best not leave it that long next time

Lighter nights are coming so hopefully that might give you extra opportunity to get out there to finish the programme.

It's a great programme it really is. You only need very slow jogs, nothing fancy, slow and steady is the best way to carry on

Have fun!

Well done Sarah. Good luck with the rest of Week 6. You have already been amazing and run for 20 minutes and this week will consolidate that... :)

Slow and steady will do the trick.

Well done for getting back into it. You enjoyed this one so there's no reason to stop. Is there? ;) Some days the hardest thing to do is putting your shoes on and walking out the door but you did it.
