Never thought it possible!!

This programme is amazing. Every time I go out for a run, I’m astounded at being able to complete it. I just did W5R2 with 2 x 8 minute runs. If you had said at the beginning I would get this far, I wouldn’t have believed you. I have never been able to run, and always made excuses not to - I’m so pleased that I decided to prove myself wrong. You can do anything if you put your mind to it and as Arnold Schwarzenegger once said “ignore the nay sayers”!!

The programme is great but it is your amazing body that is responding to the carefully structured progression of the plan.

Keep running, keep smiling.

It’s a wonderful voyage of discovery isn’t it? That feeling of “wow, I can do this. Me!” Good luck with the rest of the programme x
