Third of the way through, second time around

Thought I would check in with a short update. I’m pretty much through week 3 and I now know I totally made the right choice starting over after losing a few months back end of last year through illness/injury. I’ve definitely lost some stamina during the time off and I can feel it gradually building back up which feels great. Enjoying the programme even more than I did first time around. I’m running every other day rather than three times a week so assuming no setbacks should be in consolidation mode from mid-March. If anyone is reading this that is considering starting for the first time then do it, it’s such a rewarding process.
