Well done you! I find that the runs I don't look forward to are the ones I end up enjoying the most (and viceversa unfortunately!)

Your speed doesn't matter - you are building stamina and speed will come later. Keep up the great work

well done dont worry about speed atm just doing the distance as the speed will come later. Well I am hoping it will as people are talking about me and that snail.

Thx all, slow and steady wins the race or so they say. After reading the blogs on here I was a bit hesitant in saying I would feel this good after a few weeks as others have..... But it really is amazing the difference a couple of weeks makes, looking forward to Wednesday now for my next run.

Not what you're looking for?
