'Doing it nonetheless' is an attitude which will serve you very well in completing this programme. Keep it up!

I'm doing mine on the treadmill too, once I have confidence I will venture outside ;-)

Well done on getting that first day complete, that's the first obstacle cleared :)

I started out on the treadmill for the first 5 weeks of the programme, then discovered I prefer running outdoors, off-road. Ultimately, it doesn't matter where you run, only that you are running.

Hi, just starting out too! I hit the road today! Good luck and keep going. I looked at Eastbourne race for life too, but not confident enough to book just yet. Do try the great outdoors, being out definitely motivated me. 😊
