I’ve done it!! πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

I started my programme on 23 April 2017 and have had numerous setbacks and struggles, largely self-esteem and confidence related, but have finally done it!!

I’m officially a graduate! πŸŽ“

It’s taken a LOT of time and effort for me - I rarely finish anything I set out to do because I always convince myself I’m not good enough anyway, but I’ve repeated weeks and fought for it. I’m so proud of myself.

Thank you so much everyone! I only joined the forum 8 weeks ago at the beginning of β€œWeek 5” when I changed to ONE YOU and have since come on leaps and bounds, and with the support and advice offered have managed to pretty much steamed through to the end of the programme.

SLOW AND STEADY!!

I am so grateful and utterly thrilled. Now to decide how to progress! Running is NOT a habit I want to fall out of.

I had a glance over this post a few weeks ago in eager anticipation. Now time for a good read then I’ll mill over my plan while I consolidate with more 30 minute runs for a few weeks.

Many thanks!
