2 days ago, I was feeling dejected as my Wk7r3 hadn't gone to plan! I asked for help....you rallied round....and I tried again this morning. I wasn't feeling confident but with your wise words of "just a practise run"' "everyone has a bad run now and again", "just a blip"....ringing in my ears, I set off! 25 minutes = Completed! I'm back on track - thanks to you! Bring on week 8!

Great stuff, we knew you could do it! Just think, in a couple of weeks it'll be you with "graduate" next to your name encouraging other new runners! XX

Well done :-)

Well done you!! We all have off days but need to remember we are passing everyone still on the couch anyway . Sounds like you have overcome all your gremlins though. Enjoy week 8. You get to meet Julie at last!!
