Well I’ve completed W4. I really cannot believe it. Still running at 6am So nobody is about but for the first time I was so focussed on getting through the run, watching my breathing and where I was going. I don’t think I’d have cared less if anyone had seen. Bring on W5 😱

Well done, so proud of you. I have lost some weight from the running but it has also motivated me to eat better on order to lose more weight, but most of all it has boosted my confidence so now, even though I still have a very large backside, I don’t care who sees it in Lycra! I mean, I still wouldn’t go to work or to the supermarket in leggings but out in the park or on the cycle tracks, I have as much right to wear Lycra as anyone else!!

I've just completed week 3 and I've just looked at week 4 and don't know if I can do 5 minutes 😕 I'm doing it on the treadmill at the gym so using my music as my motivation and counting buses go by!!

That’s great and very encouraging for me to read. I ve just completed week I and I am optimistic about week 2. I also am sporting a large bum which is stretching the Lycra to maximum capacity. Wonderful stuff that Lycra!. Good luck to all next week

Well done! You’ve got this! Getting out at 6am is an achievement in itself!! 😜 you’re almost halfway but think how much further you’ve come in every other way ! And it’s just the start👍🏻🏃🏽‍♀️

Ignore any comments if you get any and most of all enjoy that post run feeling! It’s the best.

You’re doing fab!! 👍🏻👍🏻🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♀️

Well done VLL! You’re doing brilliantly! I’m on W3 and had a peak at W4 earlier - it looks grim but you’ve proved it’s doable, so that’s what I’ll concentrate on!!

That's fantastic, I remember being daunted by the step from week 3 to 4, and I remember the elation at completing it! We'll done you!
