I know I’ve only just started really. I did W2R1 just now and did really enjoy it. The view helped. So as a few have been putting pictures up of their runs I thought I would too 😊

The breeze off the river was lovely

Beautiful. It does help when you’ve got a lovely view. Takes your mind off the huffing and puffing - or is that only me?!

It is indeed. It looks more gloomy than it was in that photo though.

I’m on week one I had a sneaky look at the further weeks runs 😱 if I can run for half an hour at week nine it’ll be a small miracle!

Haha I know how you feel. Doing W2R1 was ok but the thought of running for 30 mins non stop is exciting. I’m trusting the programme and we will do it!! Maybe when we have finished we could run the riverside together 👏

Super jealous that's your run location 😀 So beautiful! I'm doing W2R1 tomorrow. Can't wait 🏃‍♀️🚶‍♀️

The first run seemed ages but after it Jo said about changing your mind set from ‘I hate running’ ‘why am I doing this’ to instead thinking ‘I am running!’ ‘I can do this’ and it worked! Good luck 👍
