First run done!

This is my 3rd time starting couch to 5k. The first time was a couple of years ago - I got to about week 7 and then sprained my ankle and after recovery felt unable to start again.

The second time I lost my motivation and anxiety stopped me from picking it back up.

This time I am determined! I'd really like to find a sense of community to push me forward and I'm hoping this is the place. 😊

Week 1 day 1 complete, roll on Saturday!
