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 πŸ˜ŠπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

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😊😊😊

in reply to Buddy34

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 πŸ™„. 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 πŸ˜€

Well done! I like to post after each run too - it creates a history of the adventure that can be referred back to πŸ‘πŸ˜

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 😊.

πŸ‘πŸ‘ well done you! I'm the same..posting helps rid the brain of the negatives and fears...love this community!!πŸ’•

in reply to Tigertailor

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

I also love today that Sarah Millican called me β€œpet”. She called me β€œflower” 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. πŸ™„
