I did it! I was really looking forward to my run today even though I was nervous of the 5 minutes of running. I found it okay and at times just forgot I was running! At the end I was glad to stop - really wanted to stop when Sarah said I was half way through the last 5mins but I carried on and didn't collapse! Can't believe how far I've come and how I'm enjoying it π

Keep it slow and keep it steady... just relax and look forward to the runs to come. They follow the ones before and you will do this
