Don’t get too excited - it was only the first run ! But I’ve had to overcome a lot just to get that far. Thanks to everyone for the advice and encouragement. When I’m hating this, I’ll just remember I’d never have come across you all without it 😄

The first run is something to get excited about! It’s a bloody tough run to do. Well done!

Totally agree with the comments above, I can totally relate to how you feel after your first run, I wanted to shout it out loud all the way home! 😀😀 Well done you, I’ve managed to get the third run for Week 1 done today, so I’m buzzing! I never thought I’d manage to run again after a heart attack at the gym two years ago so I’m over the moon that I’ve managed this first week!
