Week 5 Run 1 - Done!πŸ˜β˜€οΈ

Is it true? Do I feel happy after that run?

Yes!

I found this run not as tough as the last run!

Only thing I did was whilst running I did do a quick turn around which may count as a slight pause / stop as I didn't want to go down a certain path. Thanks everyone!

One funny thing was an old man paused and I didn't know if he stopped for me so I said thank you and he said eh?!

I have learnt that running isn't always easy and that there are good days / bad days but if you're doing it whatever pace that's what matters! If you're moving your body that counts even if you have to repeat a day it all counts and it's about enjoying the journey.

I'm glad couch to 5k exists!
