Running away from diabetes.

Hi all. I’m on week 4 run 2 and am great full for finding this forum. I’m a tread mill runner at the moment as I tried C25K a couple of years ago but it was too hilly here for me to get past week1. I had a hip replacement 6 years ago then was diagnosed with diabetes T2! I now imagine myself running...no jogging... away from The Sugar Monster to bring my numbers down. You lot are an inspiration so thanks for all your posts. X

You can definitely get away from that sugar monster, in fact flatten him underfoot - keep going it will be worth every step. Potential life changing benefits 🙏
