Do I like running now?

I just ran my first run of week 6 and I honestly NEVER thought I would write this, as in my 23 years I have always HATED running, but I actually really enjoyed the run, not even just the feeling of satisfaction afterwards. If you’re starting the plan, honestly you can do it, just listen to Sarah Millican’s voice and it will all be ok! 😂

Thank You! :)

I am a couple of runs behind you with Michael Jackson😂That would not be the case if he were running😂Well done you.The administrators and Mentor and many others sing the praises of the original podcast, LAURA. She must be fabulous, no doubt. Atb.

Oh yeah, Laura is the bees knees! The high priestess of C25k, C25k+ and Strength and Flex.

Thanks.As a novice you want to absorb so much, and get it right / factual.Only because there is so much respect for the forum and to avoid confusion ,maybe particularly to new members.

Nice to be involved without muddying the clarity within the forum.

Appreciate your confirmation.

Awful having to eat humble pie isn't it!? I never ever thought I'd enjoy running, just never!

Oh well, we live and learn every day. Maybe it's just life teaching us to admit we were wrong 😂😂
