Week 1 done

Finished week 1 today again and feel so chuffed with myself. The wind and rain meant I fired up the treadmill (which I hate) and got through it - and then felt so good that I headed out for a soggy walk with Ollie.

I truly forgot the buzz of ticking off a week in this programme.

Good luck to everyone starting off.

Well done on completing week one - and yes, it is a great reward to progress steadily through the programme!👍 Good luck with Week two - I hope you manage to get outside for some of your runs soon.🙂

Thank you CazzaW. It was a bit strange on the treadmill - boring to be honest but I still got the buzz of completing the week. I must read back my previous posts too! Good idea!!!

Well done - we are on the same week. Just finished my week 1 - went out early no one about - trying not to look at what week 2 holds!

I noticed that earlier. This is my second shout at this programme - I completed it during the first lockdown but got lazy then. It’s a fabulous programme. I’ve never been a runner of any shape before but this does work. We can keep each other going.

Well done completing week 1!
