I actually did it!! Completed my first run this morning. Once I got over the shock of actually running in public, I even quite enjoyed it.... Thanks to all of you inspirational people on here who made me realise that I could get out there and do it xx

Congratulations, they say that run is the hardest, well done, onwards and upwards to run 2 of week 1 and your graduation run in 9 weeks time, but remember that you can repeat any runs or week's if you wish to. 😊 🏃

Thank you. I think this one was mentally difficult, the thought of getting out there and running in public was scary! There was so many other runners in the park but we just rubbed along together and I even got some encouraging smiles along the way. As you say, onwards and upwards!!! X
