Well I did it! Decided to change route totally today and ran along the tow path beside the river - totally flat apart from going up over a bridge at the beginning. I won't say it was easy but I kept going till the end ☺️. About half way through I was getting tired and my legs were getting heavy but then I saw Dame Mary Peters (Northern Ireland's most famous Olympian) who was coming towards me as she was out walking. This inspired me to keep going. Then when Jo said there were 2 minutes to go, I knew I could make it to the end!

I never thought I could run for 20 minutes with stopping - not fast but still running!

For everyone still to do this, don't stress, just believe in yourself. You can do it 🤗.
