Just starting out. Don’t really think of myself as a runner as yet and have to psych myself up for each run. Just finished week 2 run 1- hoping I can keep going. Enjoy feeling like I’m doing something to help my fitness though.

Our brains often try to undermine our best efforts. Take charge of your brain! Don’t let it win!! I’m on week 5 and still trying to persuade myself to go out for a run but I am always glad I did it when I get home!
