First Ever Run

Did my first run and I feel great!

Must say it was tough going, in the sense that I had to walk over a mile to the park before even starting the course and a mile back afterwards! Not only but it's really hot over here in Italy and 8.30 am was probably a bit too late in the day for jogging, but I did it!

I stupidly ran uphill for the last 60 seconds making me feel nauseous, but I did it!

Every inch of my body is tingling. Looking forward to Week 1 Run 2 on Wednesday.

THANK YOU ENCOURAGERS!
