Wasnโ€™t nearly as bad as I was expecting! I headed all the advice, drank plenty of water, stretched before and after and ran slowly! In fact so slowly that Iโ€™m sure my brisk walking was faster than my โ€˜runningโ€™ ๐Ÿ˜‚

Onto R2 on Friday ๐Ÿ’ช

Brilliant!!! You are doing amazingly well. I found week2 run1 really hard! The rest were much better though. Enjoy the rest to Friday.

Iโ€™m with you on the feeling that my brisk walking pace is faster than my โ€œrunsโ€ ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ˜‚

W2R3 planned for Friday...weather permitting ๐Ÿคž

Maybe both our runs on Friday will be a tiny bit faster.... maybe tortoise pace ๐Ÿข ๐Ÿ˜‚ But seriously, as we know, we shouldnโ€™t worry about speed, and I truly donโ€™t, itโ€™s more important that we keep going and complete the run ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ Good luck on Friday ๐Ÿคž

I don't think it's ever as bad as we imagine... like most things in life. I have to think of running as something I want to do, not that I have to.

Good luck with the next few weeks... and hopefully more ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ˜Š
