W1R1 completed! Finished and felt like ‘Rocky’ running up the steps fist pumping - GREAT feeling to kick start this program. Off to download ‘eye of the tiger’ background track for next run!

Looking forward to run 2 tomorrow!

Take a rest day. Don't run on consecutive days.

On the day after a run the body repairs the tiny injuries you sustain during the run. This is very important. Skipping the rest days means you will eventually hurt yourself.
