W1D2 - still feeling positive

Started to rain just as I went out so had to return to put my phone in a waterproof bag. Tried to put a bit more thought into the jogging minutes, pulling in at abs to stop myself collapsing into a shuffling slouch - the 60 second running sessions seemed shorter and the 90 second walks in between longer than D1. Am amazed at how much listening to the podcast helps.

I love the podcast - Laura's chat always seems to come at the right moment to distract or encourage, as needed! :)

Well done - that's good progress already :)

Thanks RainbowC. I thought I was only on run number 5 when Laura announced only two more to go so that was a bonus!

Thanks Oldfloss. Slightly ironic to hear lyrics about sunshine when it's raining though!

Well done! And a big thank you for the tip about waterproofing the phone😀 I've worried about this. Though in my case it hasn't been the sky 🤔 I think those pesky gremlins are following me with a water gun😉
