If you saw a mad woman jumping up and down recreating a scene from a Rocky it was me completing run 3 week 1 and I just needed to celebrate!

Just that really ... run 3 of week 1 in the bag. celebrating in the street as though I'd completed the London Marathon rather than 8 x 60second joglets but I am so happy with myself and I just wanted to shout about it 😊

Well done. I did W1r3 yesterday too, and and at the time I just wanted to curl up in a ball. Enjoyed it though. πŸ‘

I promise it gets better. I was convinced I'd need to call for an ambulance to get me home during week 1. I felt dreadful, had a stitch in my side, my heart was pounding, couldn't breathe....fast forward to yesterday, and I ran for 25 minutes straight. OK not exactly ran, more like a gentle jog, but still. The programme really works.

You sound just like me! Well done on getting going. It's a great feeling isn't it? And thank you for my new favourite word - joglet! :-)
