First run felt a bit heavy but I listened to Sanjeev and focussed on my breathing, tried a few different routes and before I knew it I was on my last run! Thank you guys feeling chuffed 👍😊

I did my first run last night as well. I noticed I kept tensing up and had to remind my self to keep everything loose! Which helped a lot. And I listened to a podcast and Laura kept cutting in to tell me when to run, walk. Good luck. Hope we make it to run 2!

Well done to you! Can't say that enough to everyone taking part! Yes I'm listening to a podcast too, a true crime one, I'm gripped and distracted so my runs fly by! Good luck for your next run! 👍
