Done it πŸ‘πŸŒžweek one complete. Ran in the sunshine which gave me extra pace. Have been worried about people looking at me thinking what is she doing but have decided to not let that worry me. Thanks for the support this week from fellow runners its been great!!! Good luck everyone

Well done you.

Any runner will show you respect. Only the ignorant will judge you and they are not worth worrying about.

You are doing this for you and you are doing great.

Fantastic! Well done! How did you find it? I just completed week 1 today too πŸ’ͺπŸΌπŸ™ŒπŸΌ I know what you mean about onlookers...we are away in the Lake District and I forgot to pack my running trousers so had to make do with saggy jogging bottoms but I thought who cares, let’s do it! Wishing you luck with week 2! So lovely to follow someone at the same stage as me, thanks for sharing your experiences. x Jo

I found it ok but it feels me with a little bit of dread as I know it’s going to get harder. Yes it’s great sharing with people I think it keeps me going. Good luck keep posting πŸ‘πŸ˜€
