I suck at introductions..

.. But here I am :)

I am doing C25K for the second time, I did it six years ago and abandoned 1/3rd of the way through. I have MS and had a few bad relapses whilst I was in the wilderness, but now as part of my weight-loss drive (it's going really well), I'm back in and more invested than ever.

I ride C. 100 miles a week and wanted to get a bit more definition, running is good for that. So on my partner's treadmill I am churning out the runs and once I graduate, I want to add in outdoor running.

Tonight is W6R3, first 25 minute run, bit nervous and yet hopeful at the same time.

Hi all :)

Hi plodde, it sounds like you're doing amazing things to get this far, you have my full respect. Good luck for your next run. My autocorrect is having a field day with your name, this version is going to have to do I'm afraid 😳

Thanks Grumps, Best wishes appreciated, managed the full 25 minutes, genuinely chuffed and awestruck. :D
