Everything went great today, so happy I finished my first week, great feeling of accomplishment. I felt so energetic that I almost tried to push myself over the limit, but remembered the wise words I've read by some of you guys.

Today's run is hopefully my last treadmill in the series. On Monday I plan to do it in public, lol.

Brilliant - that energetic feel good feeling is how the addiction starts 😀 Enjoy running outside, I started in big wide world and can't imagine doing it on a treadmill - think I would get bored.

Good for you!

It's a great programme. Trust it and don't be tempted do more at this stage.

Well done. I started outdoors but as I am surrounded by hills I decided to move to the treadmill as I envisged tripping on a curb or running too fast. Hoping to move outside once I've graduated - weather permitting (I'm a wimp)
