I was pooing my pants about this week as I've read all the posts, I have done the first run which is an achievement in itself. who would of thought five weeks ago (just after giving up smoking) that I could run for not only five min but three times five mins. whoooopie! only down side I've gained three lbs :(

Well done!! And don't worry aboutu the weight gain - have a look at andystev's blog called Let's talk about Weight on 29th Feb - it puts it all into perspective.

I am about to do wk 5 run1 tomorrow and am very nervous about the whole week. Reading your blog has made me feel a bit better. I'm sure once done I will wonder what all the worry was about.

Well done to you :)
