What has happened to me?!

I am sitting here In my hotel room in Vietnam amazed and so pleased with myself.

To give you some background about 4 weeks ago I hurt my calf running w4r3 and when a week later I did w5r1 it was still sore I decided to give myself a break from C25k to let it heal. For the last week I have felt better but was celebrating my birthday and coming on holiday for 2 weeks so managed to convince myself that It would be better to start again when I got home......but I did pack my running gear as my friends go to the hotel gym on holiday.

Well this morning after being instructed how to use a treadmill by my friend yesterday I took myself off to the gym at 6.30am and I completed W5r2 with no issues at all (although at a slow pace).....I am over the moon. All my runs so far have been outside so it felt very different on a treadmill.

I just turned 45 and have been on a treadmill for the first time.....wonders will never cease. Reading posts on here is so encouraging so now I need to just keep going 😁😁😁

Have a good day everyone.......now time for breakfast!
