Starting Over - Week One, Run One

After completing C25k last year, I stopped running after ten consolidation runs (why did I do that?!!!) so it's now back to the very beginning for me.

Started today (week one, run one) nice and steady. This time though, I'm on the treadmill at the gym. Hope that's not considered cheating!

Warmed-up at 6kph, walked at 6.5 and ran (jogged) at 7.5. Booked back in for Friday 🏃 I know I can do this 👍

Don't beat yourself up about stopping, give yourself a massive pat on the back for re-starting! I restarted C25K last year after some time out and thoroughly enjoyed it. Knowing you did it once takes away any anxiety or apprehension - just enjoy it and remember that coming back to it is great. Happy running.
