Wow I just cannot believe that slowly but surely these runs are coming along nicely.

I now feel I’m quite serious about continuing and almost done with week 5, started after New Year so ordered Fitbit last night.

Hopefully proper trainers will also get their turn.

Thanks guys for being there 🤸‍♂️🏃🏻‍♀️🙌🏻

I think week5run3 was my favourite run of the fist part, well done on getting there and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Not going to lie, felt a bit odd and 'why am I doing this to myself' was (and still is) a recurrent thought whilst I was doing it, but the feeling at the end was amazing! Just keep going, even if you are slowly jogging on the spot, you are still running!!

Well done! Great achievement.

I’ve just completed wk5 run 2 this morning & it feels good.

I’m feeling curious/ nervous at how run 3 is going to go, but I’ve felt that way at every new challenge including this mornings run, I’ll just keep on trusting the plan & going with it.

Yes trust the plan.

It worked so far. That’s what I’m doing also. Seems impossible but so far so good.

Next one is big one.

I’m thinking Really???? I’ll run that long? ??

But hey most likely I will.

And you!!!

🏃🏻‍♀️🙌🏻👏🏻
