Let's NOT go round again....

On Sunday I had decided to redo wk3 as I wasn't feeling comfortable with moving onto wk4. Spoke to daughter's and husband and they shrugged and said 'whatever' (In a nicer way). Anyway mentioned to youngest daughter last night that I was running on the morning, that she was to get her own breakfast and that is decided to do wk3 again and she said, 'mum, stop harping on about it! You completed wk3 and was chuffed. They wouldn't design a running schedule without taking everything into account. You're more than capable, so have a go. If it's too hard then go back and repeat, but don't be afraid of failing!' All this coming from a 16 year old. SO I 'gave it a go' and nailed it. Thank you Katerina! You'll never read this but you have me the push I needed. Roll on Saturday morning (day off) for wk4r2!!!!!

Well done on completing that run it would appear that your daughter has a lot more faith in you than you have in yourself so take some of that positivity and move on to the next one.

Can we please co-opt your daughter on here as a mentor.

Trust the plan. Your doubts are quite normal but unfounded.

It works. You can do it.

Wise words often come from where we least expect them....
