Nothing can stop me now.... unless I run down some stairs!

Hello again!

So my Couch to 5K journey stopped pretty abruptly about a month ago as I broke my bloody wrist falling down the stairs at work! It was pretty spectacular. I bashed up my whole body pretty badly so decided to take a break from running as it just hurt. I had just done week 3 run 1 the night before I had my fall and was feeling fantastic and was starting to feel confident in my ability.

I am now feeling up to going back out. The cast will be off soon so not overly concerned about it being sweaty!

The sun is shining, the evenings are lighter, I am feeling positive!

Great incentive to go out running in spingtime its so nice outside. Take it nice and steady like before and enjoy your running success.😊

Oh cor blimey! It seems these things happen to us seemingly as we start the programme. We have barely laced up our new daps and kerblammo we fall or pull something πŸ™„ I had a fall recently and mashed my features but was soon back on it

I hope you are better now and ready for the off πŸ˜ƒ
