W4R1

[ANewMe2022]

Can I get a WooHoo!!! So I posted last week about my 'I can't possibly do week 4' mental attitude and was spurred on by all you lovely peeps . So much so in fact, that whilst getting my kit on this morning I didn't even contemplate the enormity of what I was about to undertake! I am pleased to report that W4 terrifies me no more. I did it, and what's more I did it with some left in the tank! My lungs weren't trying to break through my chest wall and I had recovered my breathing in about 20 seconds after the final run. I tried to breathe on 3 steps again, and found my breathing changing to 4 on the final run. This is great news for me as I have seasonal asthma this time of year! Winston was as ever faithfully by my side, and he's not nearly puffing as much either. My new mantra is 'Run like you're sponsored by Nike' ...xx

[SlowWorm2016 Graduate]

WooHoo to you!! Take it steady, but sometimes it really is mind over matter and the less we think, the better we do .

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to SlowWorm2016]

[RunningGeek Graduate]

WooHoo! Well done you 😀 Nearly half way. Happy running 👟🏃👟🏃

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to RunningGeek]

Thanks for the WooHoo!!! Happy running to you too...xx

[nuffsaid]

well done, nearly half way there - once you reach the halfway point it's easier to keep going than it is to turn back.(in theory!)

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to nuffsaid]

Which run is half way? There's no way I'll be turning back! We'll be holidaying at North Ledaig at the beginning of June and I want to be able to run around 'the block' which is 5.4 miles...xx

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Thanks Pops, hope you're having better days...xx

[poppypug Graduate in reply to ANewMe2022]

Thank you so much, feeling a bit " flat " the last couple of days ,but that's only normal I suppose. I am going for a run tomorrow so that should lift my spirits hopefully xxx

[ANewMe2022 Graduate in reply to poppypug]

Doesn't get any easier, you just learn to live with it. One day you'll be able to think of your mam without being so so sad, and just relish the memories you made together...xx

[poppypug Graduate in reply to ANewMe2022]

Thank you so much, very wise words xxx

[Von99 Graduate]
