...Nailed!!! Super-slowly, but having recently discovered you lovely guys, and having spent a probably unhealthy amount of time over the past few days reading through loads of your posts, I've discovered that speed doesn't matter, and that slow and steady really does win the day! I'm sure I've got some tough runs ahead of me, but hey, I RAN 3 x 5 MINS TODAY...unbelievable!! I thought about all your top tips as I ran today, and I have a real sense of all-round joie de vivre as I complete each mini-milestone. Thank you for all of your inspirational posts - what a great group to be a part of!

I saw a good friend of mine today who is a runner, and I thought, "hey, maybe I'm a runner, too....?!". 😄
