Hi all...

[Behr]

Been lurking for a while, so about time for me to say ‘hi’...

Just completed W4R2 for the second time, as I’m repeating week 4 after a bit of a disaster on holiday last week during W4R3. Was it the borrowed shoes? Lacklustre warm up? Different treadmill? Bad luck? Voodoo from a waiter who thought the tip I gave wasn’t large enough? Don’t know, but W4R3 went seriously awry... Still, R2 repeat went ok today at the gym, back on home turf, although some beggar was on *my* treadmill so had to use second, scratch that, third favourite! Fingers crossed R3 turns out ok the day after tomorrow (or thereabouts).

Still amazed that I can ‘run’ as ‘long’ as that (even when it’s not after an ice cream van) and that’s all thanks to C25K and the encouraging, warm, funny posts on here from various people (I hope you know who you are, folks).

Anyone that thinks they can’t do it - and I know a lot of people say this, but - if I can do it *anyone* can!

Wish me luck for W4R3 when I get to it. I may need it!!

Good luck! I’m sure you won’t need it - well done on being motivated enough to run on holiday - I didn’t!

[Behr Graduate]

Thanks!! I knew if I didn’t do it, I’d probably end up starting all over again from W1R1... 😂🤣

Good luck! Trust in the program, it really works, you’re doing great 👍

No luck needed... just you and the legs... slow and steady as you go

[Behr Graduate in reply to Oldfloss]

Lucky for me, slow and steady is all I’ve got! 🤣

[Oldfloss Administrator Graduate in reply to Behr]

And that is just perfect

[Bridget007 Graduate]

You don’t need luck you will be absolutely fine 😀 go as slow as you like especially in this heat 😅

[Behr Graduate in reply to Bridget007]

The gym I go to hangs a moist tea towel in an open window, so it stays *really* cool 🤣

[Bridget007 Graduate in reply to Behr]

Have answered you but above ... me and technology we don’t get on 😃😃

[Bridget007 Graduate in reply to Bridget007]

And there’s me thinking people who run in a gym are so lucky because it’s all air conditioned 🤣🤣🤣

[Behr Graduate in reply to Bridget007]

They say if it gets really hot, one of the trainers will blow on the tea towel.

[Bridget007 Graduate in reply to Behr]

🤣🤣🤣
