OMG W7 complete

Yesterday I set off for the third run of week 7 feeling less than overjoyed, ran the 25 minutes ( a slog) ran the next 5 minutes ( starting to feel more into it) and then ran another 2k home because I was enjoying it so much. I would never have believed it possible 7 weeks ago. I’m very slow, but once I have settled in, I love running!! Astonishing! I’m only sorry it’s taken me 58 years to find out :-))
