R1 W1 again..

I originally started this in June, then had a bout of sciatica which scuppered things and with one thing and another just didn't get back into it. I have started again today and it went well. I did a different route which didn't include a hill and felt great at the end. P184 is my mum so am feeling inspired by her (and dad) :-)

Good luck for your second go! I had problems for years with my back too and now that's hopefully a thing of the past I'm building up strength here. Your mum inspires me as well - I'm nearly twenty years younger than she is and I always think - if she can do it so can I... :-)

Thanks Mitts, she was already so much fitter than me with her fitness classes and lots of walking, but she has been so fantastic with this C25K that I am also using the "if she can do it I can".. Roll on Tuesday :-)

Well done you for not giving up and getting back out there as soon as health allowed. I had sciatica when I was expecting my eldest and it was horrible. I'm sure you will do brilliantly on C25K with those great running genes! :-) Love your mum's blogs so I'm sure great blogs run in the family too!
