Finally I’m back and SO happy!

I have finally managed 2 runs now, my first was last Friday which must have been about 6 weeks post my graduation and felt amazing (after the first 5 minutes)

Waited until I felt better post covid and supposed to be waiting until I speak to cardiologist. However, I got too impatient so decided what the heck!

I was expecting to only manage 5-10 minutes but actually ran, very slowly for 2 miles. Totally elated and repeated today.

Can’t believe how much better these 2 little runs have made me feel, so great to be back 😀

Hope everyone is ok and keeping safe 🙏
