Wk 2 run 1

After a bit of an emotional start to the day from my 5 yr old who wanted to come with me I made it out of the house this morning to do run 1 of week 2 (alonešŸ˜).

I know itā€™s only 1 min longer in total running than week 1 but feeling very pleased with myself for not stopping even when I hit an uphill bit on a run section.

No one out at all today - not there are ever many, but think itā€™s going to be a warm day. I even did my stretches properly when I got home!

I hope everyone is enjoying their bank holiday weekend.

I completed my first run of week 2 yesterday. I was dreading it but did it! Well done you for completing it too!

Thatā€™s great you did it and great to find someone at the same stage as I am. When are you planning on run 2? I think I am going out again on Tuesday. Best of luck.

Iā€™m planning to go tomorrow morning before my son wakes up. Iā€™m doing this to get fit and get rid of my ever expanding mum tum! Good luck to you too!

Let me know how it goes. It was my little monsters that made me think I should do something when my son asked why my tummy was so soft and daddyā€™s isnā€™t!!!! Charming!
