Well that run is in the bag I smashed it.

Running by the sea is great except the cross wind so had to change my route for the second part so I could get my breath. But I managed it fine.

Trying to be positive about run 3 the 20 min, but I think needing to take my inhaler at some point will be what makes me need a break half way. But il just see what happens I guess.

Very happy today 😊

Great job... that workout you just did is longer than the next, it's a mental challenge, you can do it!

Well done pinkybee! The next run is the best gift this program has to offer and it was my most favourite run. You will actually be active for less time than you were today. You can do it, you’ve built up to it and if you need to stop for your inhaler that’s fine too 😀

Thank you I’m looking forward to just giving it a go. I’m still on a high from todays run. I’m trying to not worry about it.

You should be flying high after today’s run! Honestly there is no need to worry, it’s hard, you’ll whoop with joy at the half way mark and when you complete ‘the fear’ you get before new runs will disappear because you will know you can do it. Weird but true 😀
