Well just sitting down after week 1 run. Having not run since my high school days I was nervous to say the least. But with michael by my side and a new year playlist I did it😀

Super happy and ready for the next run. What a great way to start the day!

Fighting the flab one day at a time!!!

Well done you! I hope you continue to enjoy the programme. There's tonnes of positive support and advice on here if you hit a sticky patch, but keep it slow and steady and you'll do great!
