Well I had to have a good talk to myself to get me going today but I took all your good advice and slowed down. Felt a bit like the granny shuffle I am sure it looked like it too but it worked and I managed to finish this time and don't feel nearly so tired, in fact quite pleased with myself. I had some trouble with my phone and the app restarted 3 times which was a bit frustrating but I got there.

Go grannystella. Well done. I wouldn't worry about it looking like a granny shuffle (which I'm sure it didn't!) as you're up, out and doing this thing, which is great. Keep going and keep on posting to let us know how it's going. Well done again. :)

Ha there's a few of us shufflers on this forum, nothing wrong with that. You are getting fitter and building stamina, never mind the speed.
