7am in Guernsey and I’ve completed W7R1! I am sitting on a lounger looking at the sea and feeling blessed! 😁
I’m a runner! I set out with a mind full of little hesitations. “There’s no pavement to run on”, “I could get knocked over”, “Maybe I shouldn’t have chosen to pack black kit”. I wonder if it’s going to be too hot?, Ooh maybe too cold” I’m not sure where to turn around to head back time wise (very long Rd)”. Talk about resistance! 😂 But like always, I took command of that little rascal and said “I am going mate, get your trainers on...out the door!”
Well it has been amazing! MJ did pause on me in the last 60 seconds, (after he tells me I can pick up the pace if I’m feeling good 🤨, so I do), nothing crazy, but after a bit, I thought.....mmmm MJ maybe you’re counting isn’t too great today. Took my phone out and it was asking me if I wanted to end the run! 🤪 No MJ, are you tired? Let’s keep it moving 😂. So it was more like a two minute higher energy run! Loved it! If he said do it for two minutes, I’d probably had said, I’m not risking it!
I’m very well set up for a brilliant day! Hope you all have a great day and great runs too! ❤️

Oh, I will be slow and steady Sallenson, I’m in no rush to get to the end! I’m just enjoying it so much. I’ve got photos of those lovely cows on route too! My goodness, I am really amazed by the change and willingness to face my fears and go for it. YOLO, as the kids used to say. I think that’s old now, but I got there eventually! 😂❤️
You're a natural Fabulous450! So glad you've discovered running and the joy it can bring. You are an inspiration!
Thank you so much Deborah! I’m amazed by what we are all doing together! You are all an inspiration to me too! Thank you for the encouragement. You are doing brilliantly too! Let’s do this! ❤️
Thank you so much little runner! I’m working, but it’s a great place to work. I’m heading home tomorrow! Keep going, you’re an inspiration and great motivator too! ❤️
Oh Fab what a great post! While you were out enjoying your run I was struggling on mine but the endorphins have certainly kicked in now! You're a runner!!
Great running Fabulous450, and a great location too! 😀👍 This running can be seriously addictive and you’re doing so well 🙂
Not far to the finish line now, just carry on doing what you’re doing and you’ll make it easily 😀 The mental side is so important in the latter stages of C25K, and you’re mastering it! 😊
Long may that continue 😄 Very busy of luck, everything is crossed for you 🤞🤞🤞
Thank you so much. My mantra is just one run at a time David! 😁 It’s a bit different every time, but that’s what I love too. Variety! The spice of life! 😂❤️
One to be very proud of! I find that I’m telling everyone I’m doing the C25K these days! I’m pretty happy most of the time, but I’m absolutely beaming about this! 🤣 This forum is absolutely brilliant. Just knowing that whatever I experience, I’m not tackling this on my own is a big comfort blanket! Thank you! ❤️
Thank you for your post. I was just sitting here thinking of all the reasons not to run tonight (mainly it's too hot!) But your post has inspired me to get my running gear on and after feeding the kids am off to run by the river where it's shady! Thanks for your wonderful post!!!
Oh thank you Teddly! See...you’re never alone on this Forum! Glad to be of some encouragement! Shady sounds marvellous! Once you get out, you’ll probably wonder why it too some grappling! Enjoy! Let us know how it goes! ❤️
Thank you so much and here.....here!! I do still have to dig deep at times, but I somehow find the courage to get out and go for it! The curiosity is definetly greater than the fear! 😁❤️
