Running newbie!

So week 1 day 1 complete. Managed all the runs and found it very tough as I’ve never run before! Hoping it gets easier over time! 😄😄

Well done for completing week 1, you will find it gets easier as you progress. Great start.

You get stronger.... much stronger! Keep it slow and steady and take those rest days.... some extra exercise on rest days, non impact,, swim, or cycle, or walk, or do yoga..your stamina has to build as does your strength!

Well done

Thank you! I love to swim and go spinning so shall mix the running in with that ☺️
