3rd run after graduating ...

Completed my third run post grad this morning. I still start out every time convinced I won't finish but I think this morning was just a teeny weeny bit easier ... can't believe I'm saying that! My first post grad run I took Laura with me for comfort but since then I've ventured into my own playlist. I set the timer on my phone but also am running the same route so have a good idea of where I am timewise.

I'm still addicted to this forum and am grateful for the support it provides so thanks to every one. Just hope I can keep it up.

Can't wait to be where you are! Do you still keep up the one day of rest between each run?

Yes, definitely. I've followed the program to the letter and it's worked for me. If I can do it so can you ... happy running!

If you want to keep it up you will keep it up. Just make sure you get out there 3x a week - no discussion. Then it will become a habit and less easy to give up.

Thanks, that's my intention. I try to get out before 7am so while the mornings are light I think I'll be OK. I'll worry about the darker days when they get here, don't want to be thinking about that for a while!
