W9, R3, BOOM!

[Scout37]

So, here we are, at the end and at the same time, at the beginning.

Somehow over a few weeks and with the support of you wonderful lot, I've gone from someone who rarely managed 1,000 steps a day to someone who has run 5k.

I can't thank you enough! I honestly might have given up if not for your sage words and inspirational achievements.

I'm going to have 3 rest days now, during which I will research my next steps. During this programme I've improved my health, my astmha, lost the lockdown flab and got back into my healthy BMI, regained some self worth and made some fab new friends. I've run 5k, and I've completed every run without so much as a few seconds cheat walk...despite occasional temptation! Best of all, I've discovered a joy in running.

Now it's hot tub time. Happy running all...I'll be back!
