Last but one run done! Decided to run around the local park for a change. Was so glad I did. The 30 minutes went by very quickly. There was loads of things to distract me, squirrels, dogs and a general change of scenery. Let my dogs off the leads so had my hands free and they loved it. Last run on Friday morning. Last run with my daughter before she goes back to uni Saturday. 😩... mixed emotions regarding finishing and saying goodbye to her. Was great to finish the last few weeks with her by my side. All of you doubting yourselves on completing this program please don't give up. I'm still very over weight but feeling so much better about myself.. losing weight slowly but can see light at the end of the tunnel now. Looking forward to Friday!!

So exciting!!!! Wow... and you have had as you say, super runs with your daughter:)

The podium awaits.... the badge is off the shelf.. champagne ready to be chilled... balloons to be inflated... and all it needs now is you to cruise, slowly and steadily towards it.. we shall be ready for you!

Thankyou oldfloss I've got to say the encouragement I've had from this forum (particularly yourself and jancanrun) has pushed me forward and it makes me realise we are not alone in this. I was a little tearful this morning. It's one of my great achievements in life. I didn't give up (not like me) and somehow found the will power to get my trainers on and get out of the door! 😘

Great post, struck a cord with me, I started so that I would stop putting on weight and have got SO much more out of it. Good luck for Friday, so lovely you get to finish with your daughter too. Congratulations and very well done in advance!
