I’m over halfway through!! I never thought I would get this far. Very windy but I enjoyed it. A bit scared about the next one. The picture is Tia on my warm down walk.

Gosh! Halfway through.. that is mega! Well done ... only a third through seems like a long way to go. You must be so chuffed. Congratulations !

Well done, Phdgranny! It's a great feeling , isn't it? And less than perfect weather only makes it even more of an achievement!! 😊

Adorable picture.

Try not to dread the 20 mins. Just start off as slowly as possible and go easy.

The feeling of achievement is amazing, I promise 😊

I am determined to do it, my two sons who are both endurance athletes (Ironman and long distance cycling) are so proud of me it helps to spur me on, lost both my mum and my dad far too early from heart disease so want to stay around for my boys as long as possible and I think this is a good start. The advice and encouragement on here is amazing x

Well done on your achievements so far Phdgranny, you are doing great.

Don’t worry about your next run, you’ve come this far which means that your body is ready for the next run.

Just take it slow and steady, enjoy it and let us know how you get on.

That’s a lovely pic by the way.
