Restart

[Paulapea]

Hi I'm Paula I'm 45 and new to the community. I started couch to 5 k earlier in the year. I got to week 5 run 3 and failed miserably. Got put off for a while but deep down really wanted to continue. I decided to restart yesterday. I started again at week 3 run 1, which I managed. I have two dogs which I walk often so felt I should be ok to start at this point. I am determined to complete it this time. I think being part of a community like this will help me and give me some encouragement. I am terrible for finding excuses why I can't do things. With working full time and having a family I am always feeling guilty for spending time on myself and always think there are other more important things I should be doing. Thanks for listening x

Tell yourself time spent on mums mental & physical well-being helps the family in more ways than you can imagine. It’s not selfish to take care of you. Well done for restarting
