OMW! Will have to take a few steps back. :-(

Can't believe I've done it, but after a bit of a medical problem and then getting caught up in other things, I didn't stick to my plan at all. :-( I've done a couple of runs here and there but not nearly in a routine.

Really dissapointed in myself but hey ho, that's the way it goes. I went out for a run a couple of days ago, really struggled so decided to start again at week 5 and take it from there.

Anyone else that didn't stick to it much after graduation?

Thank you, I really hope to be back in the swing of things very soon. You always feel better after a run than before, and I need to keep that in mind! :-)
