Just completed it this morning and really enjoyed that run after not especially enjoying my last 2. Weather was perfect this morning, cool with a slight breeze so that helped I think

For anyone just starting out, if I can do it you can too! I am on the wrong side of 50 and always start to get fit and then give up but not with this though. I have also lost half a stone since I started so win win ☺.

Thanks to everyone who has encouraged me along the way as I find all the comments on here very helpful and inspiring.

Finally saw a comment saying that the Fitbit is not accurate so tested this this morning and it is really not. Says on there that I ran 2.6 km and Nike app says I have ran 3.74km so that is a BIG difference.

Good luck all. My next achievement is running for 5km ❣
