Overtaking walkers!

That's it, really: having been convinced I would be the fattest, slowest person on the road forever, at W4R3 I am overtaking people who, er, aren't running. But, you know, it's a big deal for me! πŸ˜‰

Of course it's a big deal, running isn't easy and you've got to have the determination to keep going . Great you've now completed wk4. Well done you 😊😊

Haha I remember posting abiut that too during my C25k. I was really pleased when I overtook (stationary) people. I then eventually overtook a walking person, I was ecstatic!
