I think I'm starting to run a little bit rather than just jog. I'm not focusing too much on speed but I think it is starting to come naturally.

I could feel that I needed the cool down walk home today, because it felt like I had worked a little harder than I normally do. On one hand, I felt like I could have easily continued running when I stopped. On the other hand, when I did stop, I put my hands on my knees and hunched over as I caught my breath.

Maybe I'm finally conquering the mental battle!

Happy running 😊

Well done! Sounds much more positive than the first 25 minutes post! Glad you are finding your mojo! You must be a proper runner!!

I'm feeling more positive which is exciting!

Thank you so much 😊 I'm still grappling with the fact that I'm a runner but I'm getting there.

[Smelliepoo Graduate in reply to shrinkingjaz]

At least you are aware that it is a fact!! You will get there, and I have a bit of the same issue tbh! But the FACT is that we both are!

[shrinkingjaz Graduate in reply to Smelliepoo]

From one runner to another, let's make it a promise that we think that way! 😁

[Smelliepoo Graduate in reply to shrinkingjaz]

Agreed! I solemnly swear to think of myself as a runner from this moment on. I even pinky swear!! Now That's commitment! 🤣👍

[shrinkingjaz Graduate in reply to Smelliepoo]

I pinky swear, too! 😊

Sounds great, and very positive. I tend to think that there will be ups and downs though, but hopefully more ups than downs! 😁

I hope so, too!
