Got up nice and early this morning to try and miss the heat, was a bit cooler and more shade running around the park. Shin muscles are still hurting a bit but i have a relaxing day planned today and possibly just a swim tomorrow. Looking forward to beginning week 2 and its really encourgaing that i lot of members are at the same stage as me and are equally positive!

Well done on completing week 1, in the early weeks all my leg muscles hurt at one time or another, in my case i think it was my body in shock i was moving.:0

Good luck with week 2

Good man! Week two day one for me and if it helps to know I found it quite easy (and dare I say it enjoyable) not running at a million mph but going at a steady jog. Keep on keeping on
