Wk1 R3 done

Greyhairedoldlady profile image

I'm new here and new to running, but I am so proud of myself for getting through the week, didn't think I would manage it but I have without too much pain. Now looking forward to next week. The messages I have read through are so positive and helpful, so from this beginner I say a big thank you.

Well done! For me, week 1 was the toughest. You'll be surprised how quickly you get stronger as you move through the programme. Good luck and keep going!
