A long way to go but have successfully completed week 1. Feeling really proud of myself! Had a slight twinge on the top of my foot when I set off which worried me as I thought it might worsen as I ran but if anything it eased off and couldn’t feel it by the time I had finished... weird haha!!

Good for you. 👏

There are lots of YouTube videos on foot strike that may help with your feet. Also, its difficult at this time, but be careful to wear supportive running shoes.👍
