Week Seven done and dusted

What a feeling of achievement. Seven weeks ago I hadn't exercised for a year. Seven weeks later and I have just finished a week of three 45 minute treadmill sessions with a solid 25 min run in the middle of each. I have run for 75 minutes (3 x 25) and covered just short of 17k on the treadmill in three visits. I had to run my head under the cold tap even after a shower to cool down, but as Danny Baker would say " I have never felt more alive " This website has given me the motivation I needed to get moving. Thank you.
