Hello lovely people šŸ¤—

Did week 4 run 2 this evening..had been a bit trepidatious about the jump from week 3 but itā€™s all good. Managed a km in last 5 mins which surprised me..I always start off feeling pretty slow and sluggish and end up feeling more energetic and quicker but today I ended up feeling like Usain Bolt (well, maybe not quite! šŸ¤£)

My son accompanies me on his bike every run which is lovely and keeps encouraging me ā€˜keep running mumā€™ and ā€˜go faster mumā€™!

Plus Iā€™ve noticed that my hair seems to be getting thicker, which is a bonus or a happy coincidence?! Has anyone else noticed changes like that?

Well done, I did my first WK 4 run yesterday and I still can't believe I did it, trying not to worry too much about walk 2 tomorrow! Tell your son how much you appreciate his encouragement...I wish I had someone by my side spurring me on :-)

Well done you too..Weā€™re nearly half way to graduation!

Yes, itā€™s great having my son accompanying me and ā€˜coachingā€™ too! Iā€™ve told him heā€™s really helping and that I hope he doesnā€™t get bored before week 9. Heā€™s assured me heā€™ll stick with me. ā¤ļø
