W1R3 hardest so far

Maybe I went a bit faster today, but seemed to be panting a lot more - rather concerned about Friday and upping the run time. I am doing all my running off road so hard if a run is on an uphill bit - but thought I should start as I mean to go on - am I mad!!?

Dunno about mad... crazy maybe 😂

Slow it down... build the stamina. Good job completing the week. Don’t fear week 2, you can do it.

Not mad, no. Keep going but slow it down. Check out all the links and tips and advice posted from the mentors on this forum. It’s really helped me and thousands of others.

I run on the treadmill because my husband is a gym nut and we motivate each other. I’m on week 8 and haven’t ventured outside yet! Keep going but slow down. Slow and steady wins the race! Xxx
