Phew! Was told my heart would feel like it’s coming out of my chest for the 3 min runs... but it didn’t. First run was on a slight incline, but second run I just kept on going til Jo Whiley said to walk again. I don’t think I could ever do it without her encouragement ha ha

Second run had a slight incline and I was ducking and diving amongst branches in some woods...

I wore my new wireless earbuds, although it made Jo crackly. The music and Map My Run weren’t crackly, so I’m baffled.

Anyway, essay over!

Who told you that?? Daft thing to say. If you take it nice and easy, and JOG, you'll be absolutely fine.

Carry on and well done!
