It’s just a miracle

I’ve rad so many posts here and just wanted to say they mimic exactly how I feel. I’m 47 and have tried running numerous times and it never worked ! I heard about this app and here I am 4 runs until graduation and I haven’t missed a run. 28 mins straight - me - it’s a miracle!! I am totally hooked even though I will admit it’s not all plain sailing but it’s so worth it ! I wish I could run every day. Just thanks to all here who write and the NHS for this app. It’s something I believe everyone can achieve so start or just keep going !!🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Not a miracle at all - it’s down to your own hard work and self-belief! It looks like you'll be graduating around the same time as I hope to, so see you back here in a week or so for the celebrations!

It is completely worth it and yes, it seems impossible upon first thought but the programme is so well put together it makes you see what is really possible 👍

You're almost there! 😉
