W1 R1 Done

[Ellahen2]

I did it! Well I could only jog the first two rounds but I still did it. (my lungs felt like they were on fire for a while)

I should probably introduce myself. I'm 21 a year old girl(woman?) from Swden who is obese (almost "just" overwight. I hope to run a 5K at the end of August this year and get in to university in September.

The last time I remember running was in gym class in7-9th grade, so about 7-6 years ago. Even then I would only run when the teachers were watching.

Hopefully my next run will be a bit better!

Hi I’m in week 3 I would say try to slow yourself down I think I was going to fast at first thinking that’s what I was to do but slow wins the race let me know how you get on

Yeah, I figured that I might have been taking it way faster than I should. I'll try to slow myself down! Thank you!
