A few weeks off - now what?!

My daughter and I graduated on 21st July and she went straight to stay with her Dad for 3 weeks. Neither of us manage to keep up the running alone. How do we start again?! Do we need to go back a few weeks or just see how we get on and take it from there?! Both nervous about getting out there again ...

Carry on and see how you get on. Your body won’t have forgotten all that work that you put in. Start slowly and take it easy. Good luck!

Pleased to say we stoped procrastinating and went out and ran for 26 mins and covered 3.3km. I loved it. Daughter was less keen today. I could have happily kept going but we had finished our loop and were back at our caravan. Roll on Thursday when we are going out next!
