When I started the challenge I thought I would โ€œgive it a goโ€ as I was in Spain for eight weeks and missing my exercise class, (itโ€™s a hard life) I never dreamed I would be able to run for 30 minutes without stopping at age 65, I didnโ€™t think I would get past week two! I was nervous at the thought of running for 8 minutes and then 20 minutes, you have to trust the program it works and donโ€™t let your head tell you otherwise. I can relate to all your posts and everyone is so lovely and encouraging . You can all do it, just believe in yourself. I have now got the running bug, will stick with running for 30 minutes for a few more weeks might do a Parkrun, who knows 10K could be next.!

Congratulations! Hopefully the other exercise classes are benefiting from this endurance training. Parkrun is amazing, and theyโ€™ll love having you. Celebrate well and as youโ€™ve got the bug I think itโ€™s only correct to wish you a very enjoyable journey to 10k.

Thanks, my exercise class did seem โ€˜easierโ€™ this week but the muscles I havenโ€™t used for eight weeks are aching ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚. I am going to do a Parkrun and enjoy running 5K for a while and then consider a 10K.
