Aah thank you Dee! It’s next year! That photo was last summer on holiday. I’m 49 on 14th July. I kind of thought it would take me a long time to become a runner, never ever thought it possible. Anything else, I’d give it my all at school, but that’s the one thing, I would dodge like 007! 😂 Hated the thought. Kids are grown upish and it’s time for me again!

So, I started the programme and I signed up for the Prospect Run the Rainbow Park Run 🌈 in September in memory of loved ones after my car broke down and I had to face the ultimate nightmare of my first run outdoors in rush hour. That was the most frightening, but amazing experience! I reckon it’s a feeling a bit like a bunji/parachute jump (not that I’m trying that one!) I just hoped to run it (but walk if I have to) and be in full swing by the time the big one came along. I wanted to be excited about 50, not dreading it. I’m really excited now because I can see myself running it! I can’t change my age, nor do I want to go back in time, so I’m aiming to age gracefully, but also be as fabulous as I can be for my age!

I think what we are doing is so amazing Dee and being able to support each other to do it is even more special! Roll on W2 for you. It’s going to be brilliant! Keep up the great work and enjoy it! There is no right or wrong, just getting out there is what it’s all about! And you’re doing that! Well done! I’ll be following, so keep posting! ❤️

So just to say you look AMAZING....FACT!!

Like you running has never been my thing. My husband, brother and close friend are all runners and every time I hear of they’re success there is a small part of my that wishes I could join in.

The most I’ve ever managed is 10mins on a treadmill. I’ve never managed to move beyond that so I’m hoping by building up slowly that this will be the key to my success. Previously, I have always just thrown myself into it and failed because I’ve hit a wall. Hopefully the slower build up will pay off. I haven’t exercised properly for about a year so this is definitely proving to be a challenge.

Lots of luck for your September goal...you will smash it! Thank you so much for following me and for your positive comments. You have earned a bit of me time- enjoy the journey friend 😘😘😘
