First Run Done!

This morning I woke up and felt inspired to start. I've been dieting for 2 months and have had the podcasts downloaded to my phone for the last week or so because I wanted to add exercise into my weight loss plan. So today I did the first run of week 1. Wish me luck, lets keep it going!

Well done and congratulations for getting off of the couch! I have just finished week one, so not that far ahead. For someone who had never ever run in his life, and is now 51, it was a strange feeling to be on a treadmill.

In just one week I have both surprised myself, and felt proud of what I’ve achieved.

Good luck with the rest of W1.

We Can and we Will do this 👍
