Well done and keep it up!

That's really great, well done to you. I reckon the week 1 runs are amongst the hardest as you're coming in from nothing, and there are so many of them! It's quite the mental battle as well, but if you're off the starting blocks then you're doing great. Don't worry about speed or distance, it's actually time that counts.

I look forward to seeing your progress!

I'm on run 2 as well. I've been dreading it all day and nearly made my excuses but I've just done it. We can do this!
