Amazing! Although the route was hilly and slippery in parts, i loved the thrill of completing my first RUN! I almost started crying when i was in the final stretch, but quickly realized sobbing would seriously screw up my breathing. It has been hard work, but i only hope to build on it, improve my time and set my goals higher. Thank you so much for this program and this wonderful community.

(Crying because of the emotional high, so darn proud of myself - not crying from pain or anything)

Well done. I think you can allow yourself to get a bit emotional about such an achievement xxx
