Good stuff... now stick to the programme for a while before going maverick... we don’t want any avoidable injuries

Will do. I had been sat in a classroom all day and was a bit stir crazy. Lol

Friday night blowout. Bet it removed all the stress nicely.

You are not following the plan then :)

Run 2: a brisk 5-minute walk, then 8 minutes of running, 5 minutes of walking and 8 minutes of running.

On here, the advice you will get is to follow the plan and take care... the IC is a lonely place:)

Well done! You CAN do it!!

Keep it up. I always feel tired but amazing after every run.

Happy running!!

Thank u. I'm loving it

Good, i do find it difficult and I get the aches and pains but know deep down it’s all worth it. Not only for physical but mental health.

I know a lot of people go on to do 10k but as long as we just keep running I’m sure that will be just fine 😁

This year has really pushed me to lose weight and get fit. Two and a half stone lighter. Getting fitter. No alcohol. And mentally feeling much more positive.

Not what you're looking for?
