Week 9 run 1

Woo hoo. I'm nearly there! Cold run tonight but enjoyable once I warmed up. All the way thinking still can't quite believe I can do this! But I am! How was it 8 weeks ago I could barely breathe when now I can breathe fine, it's just the legs that hurt eventually. I've also had to lengthen the route somewhat since I started. Happy days. If I can do it, anyone can!

Good luck - you WILL do it - on the homeward trail now. I still smile remembering how I was on week 1.

Congratulations - you are nearly there.  The legs will catch up with the breathing, don't worry. Well done on becoming a bona fide runner.
