Week 5 done

Thank you to everyone for you support after my last post ❤ Finished week 5 (all be it on the treadmill) with ease and feel confident that as long as I listen to my body my old injury is behind me. No reservations now going forward and got my eyes on graduation and being able to say I'm a runner! On a side note also feeling a bit proud of myself after losing 7.5lbs in the five weeks since I restarted the program so all in all I'm a happy loper today 😀

Many congratulations on that milestone run.

Stay nice and slow for W6R1.............it catches out more people than any other run in the programme.

Keep running, keep smiling.

Well done !! I've just came off my treadmill after completing it too, feels great eh . Lucky you with the weight loss I've not lost any but I do think my stomach is flatter so that's a bonus. Week 6 here we come !

Double congratulations to you! You must be made up with that run and the weight loss. Treadmill running is running. Don’t think that it’s inferior-just different. You nailed that run so be super proud of yourself. 🎉
