Absolutely brilliant way to start the day πŸ€— Early morning run with my dog and WE DID IT!! 🀩🀩🀩 Woo hoo πŸŽ‰

This program has helped so much with my well-being as well as injury. I had bursitis and capsulitis in my right shoulder and literally couldn’t move it without excruciating pain. Running has given me a goal and the focus on breathing or footwork has distracted from the pain.

This year has been so unkind with bereavement as well as family terminal illness, this program has kept me sane and enabled me to just get outside & do it.

I’m not skinny, fit or now running marathons - but I feel so much better for doing it. I’ve signed up for a 5k in the forest (love the woods πŸ‘) and am doing a Nordic walking course. These are all to keep moving and feel good πŸ€—β€οΈ

Thanks so much & hopefully keep it up πŸ™

Welcome to the unfit runners club, Ellio39. I agree with you: so many people are commenting on how well I look, and it's got nothing on how well I feel!! Keep on trucking (or jogging) and be well!

Well done. I'm also a member of the unfit runners club, but a runner nonetheless, its a work in progress. πŸŽ‰πŸƒ Been a tough year, enjoy your 5k (I've not got to 5k yet). I like the sound of Nordic walking.
