Well after being very doubtful then posting on here and listening to all your advice (thanks) I was out at 5.40 this morning and did the 20 minutes without stopping or even really feeling like I needed to! It was amazing - I feel great and think I can now actually start thinking of myself as a runner!

It really is mind over matter and when I think back I was doubtful I could even run 5 minutes without stopping! The people on here have definitely helped though, knowing they doubted themselves but did it gave me the encouragement to carry on.
