Got there in the end!

So yesterday I did it! I finally ran my 3rd 30 mins run, exactly 3 months after my very first one! I have been dithering about the last couple of weeks (partly due to bad weather, partly due to procrastination & fear of failure) & repeating a few 28 mins runs, before plucking up the courage to go for it! So glad I did... Wish I could say the run was easy (they never are!) but I managed to ignore any and all the nagging doubts & keep on running. Happy with that!

My plans are to keep up my 30 mins running & maybe go back for another park run soon... I also signed up for a 5k across the Forth Road bridge in June, so excited for that! Love my badge xx
