After the first ninety seconds I didn't think id get through the rest of them☹ . Then I got my second wind and it became more comfortable. Any ideas for rest days!

So many 😀. Walking is a good one while going through the program, it is less likely to tire you out too much, after graduation the world of cross training is your oyster, I love cross training. I hike, swim, weights, core work, indoor hike, elliptical trainer outdoor bike. On my days off running when I am not training for anything it is such fun just to pick an exercise and do it. I tend to shuffle them around and have a lot of variation.

Nowhere near as much fun as indoor hiking - I do the NHS Strength and Flex podcasts. You can do them indoors if you have the right kind of furniture !
