W9R3 4KM/30MINUTES DONE !

A bit of an anticlimax to be perfectly honest ! It was hard, it was cold and foolishly I thought that by now I’d be finding it easier. But all said and done I am proud of myself and the enormous progress I have made. And it has to be said at a tricky time of the year with wet weather and Christmas etc etc! Now what I need to do is continue and for that support I shall keep reading the inspiring and encouraging posts on this forum which really do help. So thanks everybody and good luck with your running in 2021.

Well done and congratulations - don't forget the badge. I completed a few weeks ago and have been running 30 - 33 minutes since. It is fairly routine to do 30 mins now, but wouldn't call it easy :-)

No. Not easy yet! Perhaps a good moment to invest in a proper running jacket to encourage me onwards!
