Run for Life

Hi everyone, hope you're all doing well?? Must admit since my last post about achieving the 5k, I haven't run at all!! Bit disgusted with myself but I just didn't have the drive once I had achieved completing the C25K plan. I have to say that running just wasn't my thing and I never really enjoyed it but enjoyed the elation and satisfaction of completing every step!!

I haven't stopped exercise completely as I go swimming every morning which is something I enjoy more.

Anyway..........after all that waffling, I have decided to do the 5k Run for Life on Sat 26th and was wondering if anyone else on here was thinking of giving it a go?? If you are, I wish you all the best of luck and let's raise plenty of money for this worthy cause. Take care, Steve πŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈπŸƒβ€β™‚οΈ

That's a great goal. My first ever 'race' was a Race for Life 5k - I loved it and became hooked. Sounds like you need a goal or a target to enjoy your running and to stay motivated. Events may be just the thing. Good luck and enjoy.
