Just finished week 9 run 3 and feel over the moon. It wasn’t easy and on week 1 I thought there was no way I would finish in 9 weeks.

I followed the programme closely and took on all the advice from this group 👍. Thank you !

I’m 52 now and feel better physically and mentally than I have in years. Life takes away some of your “mojo” over the years but I feel I’m getting my old ( or young ) self back where I take on challenges, take pride and look after myself.

Thanks again to this group and to everyone not yet completed stick it out - it’s a great feeling 😁

Thank you! To be honest I’ve felt pretty old recently but I feel this is a real achievement and I’m proud of myself. Wish I had done it 20 years ago
