There is no reason to be negative ‘ I hope ‘ ; always adopt positive thoughts and this programme will delver you to the finishing line safe and sound.

Why were you disappointed ? What were your expectations ? Just curious. Your expectations have lead you to feel disappointed......

Great start and just keep that motivation. Many a day I’d really have to push myself out of the door (and from time to time still do!) but I have never ever regretted it once I’d done it. The feeling of well being is addictive and so the trick is to keep the end feelings in mind and they will always beat those hard to get going days! Well done again!

Don’t worry Lawes, there is plenty more where that came from! 😀 Congratulations on starting this program. You’ve done your future self a huge favour. As you progress to longer stints you’ll find much more to keep you motivated. Just take your time and your rest days between runs. And keep posting too, you’ll get plenty of motivation from the fine people here!
