Turn up for parade with Red Shoes, Orange Shirt and Black joggers, I thought I was the bee's knees. Captain Mainwaring was not impressed, don't think I will be getting promotion any time soon. Week 6, run 1, went ok,felt good. Run 2, found that hard, but manage to finish. Run 3, good run, awesome, felt like a runner, big smile on my face. I think I am hooked, how did that happen. Thank you everyone for posting, this site certainly helps me.

Way to go @Dad's Army! Orange is the new black you know ;) Run 3 of week 6 is amazing isn't it? I bet you have that massive grin on. Week seven, more of the same and you're going to ace it! :)

End of week 6 is a great place to be.Now Laura has told you that you are a runner if you are using the podcasts. I can remember the feeling, the grin on my face and the tears in my eyes! Enjoy it you are so far into the programme now.☺
