Enjoyed it? Already??? Careful there, sounds like you’re at the top of a slippery slope that leads to being a runner.

Well done, welcome, and enjoy the next one.

Well done on taking the hardest step, it gets easier! New gear too?! One of my aims starting running was because it's free, but there's some great stuff out there to tempt me and I've always got my eye on something new!

CONGRATULATIONS! You have done the hardest part by far.

Can I ask that you watch this Youtube video? It is amazing and shows just what can be done... over 9 million views and rising.
