Well done on completing WK1. You say it's not much running but believe me it is and it's bet it's more running than a few of your neighbours!!

Keep up the good work ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

Its a great achievement. Keep going๐Ÿ˜€

Precisely and an awful lot more running than anyone has ever done when sitting on a couch... good luck for your W2 runs.

As Irish-John says a run is a run is a run. Each minute and metre adds up to stamina and kms in your running bank.

Happy running...
