Good....determination is a good word...some runs take more determination than others but you've got it, so keep it & use it & you'll be flying through....yey!!!!

Thank you folks - its 2 days since my last post, and I'm just off for R2. I was so surprised and delighted to find replies to my newbie post - lovely community of runners!

Ooooh you are embarking on the most fascinating and exciting adventure! Well done on achieving run 1 of week 1 - it just gets better and better and it is crazy how quickly this well thought out programme increases your fitness. Just remember to keep a slow (almost walking is fine) and steady pace and breathe deeply and steadily. The rewards are many. 😀🏃‍♀️
