Just a mental thing - I like to post after each run. Just nice to keep track of where I am and to see my (third!) journey progressing.

It feels good to be managing 'the niggles' and to be in week 5 😊🌸

Happy running everyone 😊🏃‍♀️

Well done! Just completed first run of week two and found it surprisingly easy! Famous last words! Have stinking cold and it was blowing a gale so had loads of excuses not to go... but did it! Great that your injuries are not playing up.

Thank you and well done on your run. That’s a great achievement to run through a cold and the wind too. I really liked the week 2 runs. Enjoy your journey. Mine seems to be going more quickly this time round!

It's good to post , it may help other runners and it's great to look back on other posts also . Sounds like you had a happy run😊😊😊

It was a funny run - the first 5 min run section was hard work as it included a slow incline towards the end, which normally falls in a walk section, but not today! Ho-hum 🙄. Pushed through though and the run just got better. So happy run yes, and light legs at the end which was a pleasant surprise!! Hooray 😀

Well done! I like to post after each run too - it creates a history of the adventure that can be referred back to 👍😁

Well done on getting to W5 and managing your niggles. I’ve done the same run today and enjoyed it, feels really good to be getting to the half way point! Good luck wit the rest of W5 I’ll look out for your progress 😊

in reply to Reluctantrunner40

Thank you! I’m glad you had a good run too. I’ve been so looking forward to getting to week 5 as I can’t wait to run w5r3! The high after running for 20 mins is fabulous. Good luck with your week. I shall look out for you too 😊.

👏👏 well done you! I'm the same..posting helps rid the brain of the negatives and fears...love this community!!💕

in reply to Tigertailor

It’s great isn’t it! Everyone helps everyone else along.

I also love today that Sarah Millican called me “pet”. She called me “flower” the other week. I clearly respond well to terms of endearment in her lovely northeast accent. 😊

However I do know she’s going to ditch me for the big w5r3 - she did it last time. So, unless they’ve fixed the glitch on the app, I shall have to switch my allegiance for that run. 🙄
