Week 1 - Run 1

[Charlotte90xx]

Just completed my first ‘run’. I use the term run loosely as it was more of a very slow jog and the running parts but I’m really pleased with myself!! Didn’t think I would stick with it but I did so.... GO ME!

Well done - I did my first run today as well. It was tough!

[Charlotte90xx in reply to Meedeb]

Well done and congrats on finishing your first run! It was tough but I’m looking forward to increasing the length of the runs.

[Meedeb Graduate in reply to Charlotte90xx]

Me too - looking forward to running comfortably.

Slow jog is all it needs. I'm attempting my final week 6 slow jog today...

[Charlotte90xx in reply to sTrongFuse]

Well done! I’m looking forward to being that far along. I’m hoping that by the Summer I have a much better endurance.

It's taken me a bit by surprise. I did Week 1 and 2 of the Week 2 runs back in June last year, and then got knocked sideways by some severe tendinitis (old rugby injury). Picked it back up in March and here I am.

I'm sure you'll get plenty of support on here.

Congratulations!! Be very proud of yourself - I've just started week 3 and am horribly slow but the point is that you're doing it. Keep going 💪

Thank you for the encouragement. I really appreciate it!!

Slow jog is the only way to go - and then slow down some more! Enjoy the plan!

Congratulations on completing the first step(s)! I'm planning on doing my first run this afternoon.
