W1R1 done!

Giving this app a go as I don’t think I’ve ever given running a fair chance. I hated cross country at school, 22 years ago 🙊, and have never tried it since. I admire people who run, but always thought ‘I could never do that’. Well never say never! Completed the first session this morning and feeling ok about it. Interested to see if I start really enjoying it or not.

You've done the hard bit by just getting out there! Keep posting your progress on this great forum and you will receive loads of encouragement and support! Follow people who are at the same stage as you! It helps motivate you to go out! It almost feels like you are letting your virtual running buddies down if you don't! Keep it nice and steady! Enjoy the challenge you will have good days and bad days but stick wth it! 👍

Well done jenmossparker that’s the hardest bit done. You will get lots of advice from mentors and those who have trod the same path. You won’t enjoy every run but you will get a buzz from the fact that you’ve done it. Just take it slowly. 🐌
