Happy Sunday everyone

So I’m on week 9 now and yesterday I took part in my first ever park run. It was actually so much fun and the difference running in an event makes is amazing.

I listened to Jo all they way around but at a steady pace I was able to run the whole way, with a first time of 34.25!! So proud, my first full 5k run.

Trust this program — it works!! 😊
