W3r3 all done:)

Ok so now I’m going to have to start thinking about getting the running shoes I promised myself if I got to week 4😁

Having read this forum for a while and researching I know I should go to a reputable running shop to get some properly fitted.

So, hopefully, they will be better stocked than the supermarket is today!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

2 things I have learned today:

1/ All underwear is NOT created equal in regards to running!

And,

2/ running after eating a meal is considerably harder and I’ll not do that again!

I bought a bit of kit every week as a β€˜reward’, that really helped me. Decathlon is great for good price good quality stuff( if its still open!) keep on going!

After visiting the running shop I have seen some lovely and pricey running jackets for wetter weather etc..

That might be the new prize if I get to week 7😁
