Feeling thankful

โ€ข6 Replies

Itโ€™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 ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ and started to reflect on the journey I have been on these last few weeks. ๐Ÿค”. I started C25K as I was feeling abit โ€˜downโ€™ ๐Ÿ™ from being on furlough and in lockdown. Following this programme over the last 9 weeks has boosted my mood enormously-Iโ€™m feeling positive, happy and so proud of my achievement ๐Ÿ˜ƒ. I look forward to getting outside to run and to see the change in the seasons-noticing the hedges greening up daily๐ŸŒณ is a reminder that life goes on regardless. Iโ€™ve got much more energy, Iโ€™m starting to tone up, Iโ€™m wanting to eat healthier choices ๐Ÿ˜‡ and Iโ€™m shaking up other areas of life too-our house should be going up for sale this week! ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ˜. The programme works as long as you follow it and reading peopleโ€™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 ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Itโ€™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 ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป
