I have graduated and Just feel so happy 😁I decided to do this run on Boxing Day with my son and dog Lenny.. It was very slow but I did it. It is such an achievement as at 52 overweight with high blood pressure it was only by chance that I took up running. I am definitely looking forward to a fitter me in 2018. This is a brilliant group as there is so much support, for people like me ❀️

Many congratulations.

Now to ingrain the habit by a few weeks of non pressured consolidation runs of 5k/30 minutes, just to become comfortable with that duration before moving on.

Keep running, keep smiling.

That's fantastic! πŸ˜„πŸŽ‰πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Hope you're dancing on that podium!

I too took up running by chance, - (a random comment from my daughter), and I joined the forum by accident when trying to download the program ( ICT not my greatest passion) - it was the best mistake I ever made!!!

Lay your plans and enjoy the next part of your running adventure.πŸ˜ƒ
