Wow!! Just completed the third run week 9. Started the first time last August but had to stop due to injured knee which took ages to heal ( think it old age ).

Started again nine weeks ago with new trainers and Can’t believe I did it. I have never run anywhere, EVER !!

Can’t say it’s easy. Can’t say it doesn’t hurt and can’t say I fully enjoy it ( mixture of pleasure and pain ) but seriously if I can do it then anyone can.

Well done you. I was much the same. Graduated last week but started way back in June last year. A bad flare-up of tendinitis put me out of action for a couple of months.

We still made it in the end though...
