Just done my 1st run of week 3. I was so apprehensive of this one (as I am all of them).
I really don't know what I was afraid of. This was my happiest run so far. I even managed smiling during it!
Not sure what the difference was? Today was cooler which was lovely. Didn't feel baked by the sun for a change. I remembered my inhaler before I left...?
Strangely after using my inhaler my chest felt a bit tighter and like I couldn't quite get enough breath in me. And this was just the warm up walk. This led bizarrely to a LOT of yawning. I must have looked a right sight! However despite this I didn't feel like I was struggling.
And I'd been so convinced I wouldn't be able to do this that I was trying to work out when I would finish the 9 weeks after I'd repeated week 2.
But once Laura told me I was halfway through the 3 mins, I knew I'd be fine. Only 90 seconds of it to go and I'd done loads of them last week.
On that realisation I was happy as a lark and started enjoying my surroundings more and giving a nod to the millions of squirrels watching me and a salute to each magpie I saw.
This run flew by and I was almost disappointed it ended. So I extended my walk home with a bit more music and enjoyed the endorphin rush.
Just.....wow!
