I am now a runner!

So Laura has just said that I am now officially a ‘runner’!

So how come it just doesn’t feel like that?

In the meantime just plugging on - week 6 completed.

So what were you doing 6 weeks ago? I bet it wasn’t running...

It’s your head demon that’s telling you you’re not a runner. I’ve exactly the same blighter that lives in my head too. Take no notice. If Laura said you’re a runner then you’re 100% a runner. Trust in Laura.

Keep plugging on Baggieman you are a runner, you’ve just run for 25 mins without stopping, something a lot of people couldn’t do, so give yourself a pat on the back for that and think back to week 1 and how far you’ve come in terms of stamina and fitness 💪🏻👏🏻🏃‍♂️

Actually it's better than that. Week 6 ends with a 25 minute run.
