I’ve done it!! 🏃‍♀️

[Zippy17726]

Hi everyone, well I have just done week9run3 !! The weather is blowing a gale and I had terrible earache but was determined!

I can’t quite believe I have done this especially after having to go back to week one after getting to week 4 due to terrible knee problems.

So, after about 3 months or so, I have finally made it with the help of Sanjeev and this forum !

I started out so unfit that I had been to my doctor about feeling breathless when I walked and talked at the same time and at the time I was about 4 stone overweight and I’m now 1.5 stones lighter and hopefully can carry that on and lose a little more.

After this run I admittedly had a bit of a cry whilst cooling down!! A happy cry though.

I’ve been a bit of a lurker on here since discovering it but you have all been such a source of amazing information, support and most importantly to believe in myself and that it doesn’t matter what I look like or how slow I’m running, I’m doing it!! It has helped so much so thank you all, what an amazing and positive community. I hope to carry on running now and will continue to come on here and hopefully post a bit of encouragement to others.

Thanks to all and good luck with your running 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♂️ x
