A little later than planned - but I did it!!!

Chose Jo as my speaky person - perfect.

Might need to look at compression bras ๐Ÿ˜… but apart from that feeling warm but GREAT!!

Thanks so much for your encouragement - defo a big help getting me out the door. And you know what? I didnโ€™t think about what I looked like....too busy focusing on breathing and not falling over ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

Well done, just stick with it. The biggest tip I took from this group was to run really slow. This defo helps get your breathing under control x

Well done!!! Youโ€™ve started on such a warm weather week as well ๐Ÿฅต I โ€˜d say a decent bra is 2nd most important item after decent trainers, so definitely get that sorted, otherwise I found itโ€™s a distraction you donโ€™t need ๐Ÿ™ˆ Remember keep reading the posts on here ....just keep it slow and trust the plan. IT WORKS. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ ๐Ÿ˜ƒ x x
