Feeling thankful

β€’6 Replies

It’s Week 9 for me and on this lovely, but cold and breezy morning, I have just come back from Run 1. I was running along πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ and started to reflect on the journey I have been on these last few weeks. πŸ€”. I started C25K as I was feeling abit β€˜down’ πŸ™ from being on furlough and in lockdown. Following this programme over the last 9 weeks has boosted my mood enormously-I’m feeling positive, happy and so proud of my achievement πŸ˜ƒ. I look forward to getting outside to run and to see the change in the seasons-noticing the hedges greening up daily🌳 is a reminder that life goes on regardless. I’ve got much more energy, I’m starting to tone up, I’m wanting to eat healthier choices πŸ˜‡ and I’m shaking up other areas of life too-our house should be going up for sale this week! πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ πŸ’ƒπŸ˜. The programme works as long as you follow it and reading people’s stories on this forum has been a huge inspiration and incentive to keep me going so, Thank you to everyone who has shared their journey πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»

It’s a fantastic achievement for us all to be coming out of a troubled year by taking control of mind and body and doing something positive for ourselves πŸ‘πŸ»πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ’ͺ🏻
