So all day I kept putting off going for run, then I said I’d leave it for tomorrow cause basically I couldn’t be bothered. But I pushed my self to go and to be honest I finished the 2nd run without stopping once (which I’m chuffed about) but it didn’t feel as bad as I thought it would

So I’ m feeling a lot better

Brilliant! 😄We’ve all had these conversations with ourselves and it just feels so great when you just do it! 😀 The difference between 😔 and 😇! 👍

There’s no way I’d have been half as motivated if I hadn’t stumbled across this forum! It’s such a positive and encouraging atmosphere. 😀 Look forward you hearing about your progress. Enjoy! 👍☀️🏃‍♀️

The hardest part is getting out of your front door. Try not to over think it, just go. You always feel so much better after you’ve been and I used to think I hated running! X

So true, CatV22, it's only your head telling you not to go out, your body is yelling at you to do it! :)

I actually find the ones I don’t have the motivation for or put little pressure on myself about doing it end up being my best runs. Well done for pushing through!
