Was lying in bed thinking of reasons not to go then logged onto this brilliant site, read about all the wonderfully ordinary amazing people doing it when they thought they couldn’t so next thing I’m up, bra and trainers on and out the door 😁.

I got further than Thursday so am proud of myself and I feel great πŸ‘ Thank you to everyone who posts here, you all got me up and doing it and I’m very grateful πŸ₯° x

Sometimes the hardest part is getting out the door! Well done on your run.πŸ™‚ This forum has definitely helped many of us with motivation over the years, me included. Believe me, this can be the beginning of such an exciting and worthwhile running journey. Good luck! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ˜€

You will get there.

Well done for battling the inertia.

Well done on getting another run under your belt πŸ‘

Hurrah for your 2nd run not just in your bra and trainers! It may be August, but you might have been a bit chilly πŸ₯Ά. The thought of running can be much harder than the actual run, so well done! Only one more run and you’ll have finished the first week. πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

Thanks Frenc 😊 I didn’t manage the last 2 jogs again as my legs were like jelly, thought I’d fall over so am going to stick to week one (even if it takes 3 weeks!) until I can do all the jogs. Xx
