Absolutely thrilled! Have been building up this last couple of months, speed and distance. Have stayed at doing at least 30 minutes but found I was finishing before time! ..... so extended the run slightly...... then a bit more. Feel brilliant! Just shows you! I am a 58 and overweight, but now doing three 5k’s a week!

Never thought it was possible!

🀣🀣🀣 I just said to my husband, last October I would never have thought I would be writing a post about me running 5k, never mind actually being a member of a running chat room! 🀣🀣🀣You just need to keep going, follow the rules, they are there for a reason. They build up your stamina to keep going.

Don’t get disheartened we all have a bad run just go again!

I run with my husband, which helps loads...... but I’ve ended up being better than him...... πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚..... for now! 🀣🀣🀣
