So I've now just finished week 1 and I discovered at at my 3rd 60sec run I get all choked up with happy tears and feeling so extremely proud of myself for a couple of seconds.

Don't know what I'd done but w1 was gone from my pod so I had to walk all the way home (20 min)to download it again and I could feel it in my legs when I started running, they were hurting a bit but Ignored it and lifted my head and looked ahead insted of looking at the ground as I've been doing before.

Feeling so darn pleased with myself!!!!!

That's so good to hear, those endorphins will get you there! Look forward to hearing how it's going! Well done you.

Well done for lifting your head. It took me ages to do that - I was afraid of looking at the distance ahead, but it made such a difference to my running when I did manage it.
