Well today was my second run and my first running in my work out gear (usually worn behind closed doors only). I was a bit selfconcious. No one laughed this felt like an achievement! 😆

Evol, it's such a huge step to take in your mind, and then when you get out there, you realise that other people just see a runner. They don't know it's your second run! Huge well done for getting out there 😊

I know the feeling. I went a bit mad in m and s and bought very bright Lycra leggings. My goodness they certainly stretch! I’m sure I must give the animals a fright when I go trotting by! Well done to us for going out there.

Great job... you just smashed a wall that you’d built to limit yourself. You may have even inspired someone else to give this a go.

Not what you're looking for?
