Starting again

[Painterabstract]

Just on week 1 run 2 after almost a year off with a rotator cuff injury. Also my partner died in late May so it’s been a difficult year. Put weight on during lockdown so keen to get back to where I was in fitness and weight. When I had to stop I was running for 45 minutes, now I’m breathless at the end of the last 1 minute run. Well ‘run’ doesn’t really describe it!

Well done for making a start after such a tough year. You’re been a runner so you know you can do it. Take care.

Thank you. I know that having support is a key part of it and now I’m on my own I have to create virtual support.

Thank you. Finding ways to motivate myself makes a real difference and this community is part of that.
