Hey Everyone

So today I had my final Cardiac Rehab (I'm going to do the top up course that I never completed last time)

Well I've been doing couch 2 5k for a few weeks with a friend with me, but I was told I couldn't do week 5 yet, last week rehab was cancelled as there was an issue with the gym, but they called me to check up on me, I asked about doing week 5 the nurse said I could do the first 2 runs.

Well today at rehab and I was given the okay to do run 3 while I was there, now it is different running on a treadmill but I've just run for 20 minutes I'm a bit tired but I feel I did okay

That’s good news indeed.

Really happy for you-sounds like the rehab prog has been so worthwhile and caring.

And running 20mins is brilliant-actually great for your confidence and the rehab team that it was on a treadmill so could be monitored and speed kept in check.

Loving hearing of your progress xx
