It’s been quite a while since my last run, just seem to have bounced from one cold and cough since before Christmas. But, I woke up this morning after a good nights sleep and thought today is the day…..

I was aware that after this long my ‘fitness’ would have dropped right off so I went back to C25K week three. Next run pencilled in for Thursday, onwards…….😁

Good to see you here... a fair few on here with coughs, colds, sniffles and all that is in between.

Well done you... take it gently and enjoy x

It’s fantastic to get that first run in a while under your belt. There have been so many colds and bugs around this year (she says, with a bad cold!). Well done for getting out there today and wishing you lots of fun on the next one. Hopefully you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how your fitness comes back. 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️

Thank you! At least there are lovely people on here to keep my spirits up!

It’s up to nine days now. Seriously fed up! Hopefully today will be a turning point. 🤞

There are so many horrible little bugs out there. Good luck for improvement today.

Thanks! My voice is currently AWOL so have had to cancel all my work for today. I’m hoping to go for a walk, possibly carrying a cup of coffee to stop me pushing too fast!

Sounds like a plan. Enjoy your silent walk😁

Just back-it was lovely! The birds singing in such fine voice made up for my lack of one! Look at this little guy who was belting out a tune with all he had…

A Robin is just such a cheery sight and sound! Lifts the spirits even on dull days.
