I haven’t posted about generally how’s it going yet but I find other posters regular updates fascinating and motivating as i see their progress so thought I would just in case it helps anyone!
As a back story I literally staggered through week 1 r1 and it has almost magically just got easier ever since. 3 minutes may not sound much but I am bloody astounded that I have ran that 6 times this week without collapsing, in fact I was barely out of breath today! It is literally magic I’m sure! I’m 48, obese, had plantar fasciitis problems and am “not built for running” - if I can enjoy it surely anyone can? Xx

It’s amazing isn’t it?? All that puffing & panting...lungs fit to burst...on weak one...yes weak...didn’t know we were that weak did we? But guess what? As we go through from weak one to week 9, strong...strong is what we feel then & our weak days are a distant memory....What a lovely,thoughtful post, hoping that you might inspire someone on here...you prob won’t wven be aware of all the folk you’ve inspired both on here & out there doing your thing...so keep it up...we like to hear everyone’s story 😉 happy running 🏃🏼♀️
Oh thank you mummycav, I’ve welled up again! It’s lovely to “talk” to people who understand- lots of people look a bit disappointed when I say 3 minutes. People here really get it! 😊
Aww, bless you...3 minutes is an absolute AGE...but you get passed it..you really do...this programme is an absolute miracle worker....you have a fab journey ahead...I’m a bit envious at you just starting out...it’s a journey full of surprises...you’ll be continually surprising yourself & we’ll all be here to enjoy reading all about it!! 😊😘
Isn’t it exciting? I felt super pro this morning as it was the first time I’d been out in bad weather - hardcore 💪🏻 good luck tomorrow, hope you are feeling positive? I run Tuesday/ Thursday/ Saturday so won’t be far behind you 🏃
Thank you, I am eating healthily just a lot to lose so quite a quick start - still another 4 stone until I’m in the healthy weight range for my height. I started slimming world at the end of August and have never eaten so much fruit, veg and protein in my life! Losing the first stone gave me the energy to start exercising more and so here I am! 😊 xx
