On the edge of completion

Eight weeks ago I would never have believed I could do it. Now I’m just three runs away from finishing Week 9. I have done it keeping to the run times and not missing any. I’m feeling I have put myself back in charge of my fitness. My age is 74! So it was long overdue. What ever age you are you can do it too.
