What was all the fuss about!

After stressing about running week 5 run 3 - I did it last night. I went to the local common as nothing was going to stop me. Especially traffic. I did it and did not stop. I still had a little bit in the trunk at the end. It was slow but I did it!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

That's brilliant, it's a great feeling when you've finished isn't it?! Such a sense of achievement! Well done 😊

I think that run was the one that made me realise I could do it, such a great feeling when you think holy cow, I ran 20 mins : )

[Pappy1702 in reply to backintime]

I know!! Once I got to 10 mins I thought I can’t stop now. I’m over half way. It was a slow run which was deliberate. I just wanted to focus on keeping going 👍🏻😊

Well done! I’m doing it tonight. Wish me luck!

[Pappy1702 in reply to Buttonsandbeans]

Good luck. Go slow but don’t stop. Let us know how you get on 👍🏻

Thanks hun. I did day 2 on Wednesday and actually found the 8 minutes ok. 20’s such a jump though! Going slows definitely the way forward. And remembering to breath properly!

Well done you! This is a great run to get under your belt and it really makes you feel “I can do this!”

[Pappy1702 in reply to Hidden]

Definitely it’s more mental than physical
