W4:2 ✅

[Annieapple]

Had a fun moment in the park that all newbies to running will understand. Caught a glimpse of my shadow running, actually running 🏃‍♀️ Jo Whiley reminded me that I am now running more than I am walking. Have a great weekend everyone 🎈

I remember seeing that for the first time. Isn't it great . 😊😊

🤣✅ it’s hard to think of yourself as a runner when you have never been one. Now the penny has dropped! 🤣

[Kat_runs4490 Graduate]

It’s strange isn’t it, seeing yourself do something you never thought possible. Well done on completing W4R2! ☺️

[Annieapple Graduate in reply to Kat_runs4490]

Thanks Kat

[Mark1909 Graduate]

I always think I look like someone who is in distress when I’m out running ! Have a fab weekend too !

[Annieapple Graduate in reply to Mark1909]

🤣 love it! Thanks Mark

[Benttoe Graduate in reply to Mark1909]

Haha! Me too! But I’m actually having fun now I’ve finished c25k.

[Annieapple Graduate in reply to Benttoe]

What we are aspiring to...finishing & having fun 😄

[Benttoe Graduate in reply to Annieapple]

Yes! My fun is just doing 30 mins 3 x a week with no intention of going further or faster.

[Annieapple Graduate in reply to Benttoe]

That’s all I want to be able to do too.

[Benttoe Graduate in reply to Annieapple]

I’m sure you will. Have you now got yourself some nice shoes? I saw one of your earlier posts about shoes. I have just ‘invested’ in a second pair for muddy ‘runs’ as I fell flat on my face last week. rather like a belly flop into the undergrowth so at least a reasonable soft landing. However, I would prefer not to repeat it!

[Annieapple Graduate in reply to Benttoe]

🤣 I have ASICS which have been fantastic...so comfy, so light & they beckon me to put them on 😉

[MummyTum Graduate]

Well done! 👏👏👏😀

[NearlyMan Graduate]

Well done Annie - will have to look out for my shadow next time!

[Puppy-love Graduate]

I remember that moment too. You’re doing great. 😊😊🏃‍♀️

[Annieapple Graduate in reply to Puppy-love]

Thank you 😊

[CharliesMum11 Graduate]

I often run through the town in the early hours and see my reflection in the shop windows. Me? running? Yes! And loving it!

[Jell6 Graduate]

It is a good moment.

I remember seeing mine and being pleased it wasn't bouncing 😊

Given the fact that I couldn't seem to follow any other instructions from Laura ( nose breathing, and counting breaths)

I was overly impressed by that shadowy me!!

[Di72]

Not seen this yet but will look for it on my next runs. Must be an amazing feeling. Congratulations on your R2 Annie 🤗 I did R3 today but bought new running shoes and they really hurt so I didn’t enjoy🥴

[Annieapple Graduate in reply to Di72]

Oh no no!! So sad to hear that! Can you take them back?
