Week2 Run1. :-)

Well I must say I was a little worried about week2 but to my absolute surprise it went very well. I didn't even find myself wishing for Laura to say "time to slow down". I didn't feel like I struggling anywhere near as much as week one. I feel a little bit proud of myself. :-) I will do run2 tomorrow even though there should be a rest day in between, but Monday, Wednesday and Friday are the days I have set for my runs and I don't want to deviate from that. I couldn't jog yesterday because it was just to slushy out so I walked through the programme. I don't want to get too cocky because I'm sure there will be a time where I fall flat on my face. lol Happy jogging everyone. :-)

Go on - feel a big bit proud of yourself! Motivation makes all the difference, so make the most of every bit of good feeling that comes your way. No messing around with little bits! :)

you will be amazed at your progression! Every week, the first run is tough! But the next is easier...and the third easier still. And then in just a few weeks time, you wont believe you can run 3 minutes straight off. You'll look back and wont believe the difference.

Gosh me running three minutes straight seems like a long way off yet, but then I didn't think I'd be able to run for a minute. LOL

Well done caz ?? that's great. I know what you mean about feeling too cocky. I was a bit like that last night and even felt that I might have managed another 90 second run if I'd had to. I guess we are just getting fitter!

Good luck for the next one. We are at a similar stage so it will be nice to progress together
