Well done - getting over the door is the hardest bit!!! Sounds like you're off to a flying start!

Thank you! I downloaded the app, last year. Kept finding excuses! I have to say, I really enjoyed it! Might not be saying that in a few weeks!

Nonsense! Sounds like you enjoyed the first run - you will enjoy the rest too. I found it was the challenge amd week by week improvement that really kept me going. I'm in my final week now!

Wow! That seems like a lifetime away! I cycle a bit, so I’m not a full couch potato, but I can get a feeling just from my first run, how people enjoy it! I hope I get into it! Congrats on getting to where you are!
