First week done!

[Suewill]

As a 61 year old I knew it was my last chance to try and get fit. Now retired I spend a lot of time holidaying and meeting friends for coffee and of course cake! I asked my daughter s and grandchildren to join me so the 8 of us, age range 3 - 33 and me completed week 2 run 1 yesterday, a lot of moaning and groaning but we did it 🏃‍♀️🏃🏃🏃

Yeay! Go you... a mere 61.... a youngster! No excuses when we are retired, are there?

Well done you...keep it up.. steady and slow.... who pushed the three year old in the pushchair...or did she outstrip all of you ?

Welcome anyway...this is a great place. keep posting, so much support and encouragement and the odd push if you need it... I started this last year, this time at 65... 66 now, still running three times a week and up to 9 K... just doing it in my own time and really enjoying the journey... I look forward to your next post

Amazing - well done! A friend of mine goes running every morning and he is mid-60s. I'm a more mature runner too, at 50 (currently on Week 9). Good luck with it - sounds a great idea to get your family involved too, sounds a lot of fun!

Welcome! Great to hear you've started the program. The big family run sounds fun!

Thanks for your support, doing it with the girls and 3year old boy and I forgot to add dog keeps us motivated. I'm off to Australia next week, a cruise first so I hope I can keep it up. The family have promised they will so I don't want them doing better than me 😂
