Set out this morning conjouring up positive thoughts having struggled through week 8! And hey presto I did it...slowly building up speed altho I didnt do 5k in the 30 minutes, I reached 4.6K so there is time to build up speed, right now Im thankful just to get through it and survive... Can hardly believe 2 more runs to graduation.. What a great feeling... Happy day to all you runners out there... :)

Hi Amsjo,

So glad that we can all inspire each other here. Week one does seem an age ago and the excitement of achieving 60 seconds of running. Then again, will never forget the journey and it will continue, I have realised that with anything in life, we strive to reach a certain target but that doesn't mean we should forget what we achieved and realise that we need to keep at it in order to continue... My next challenge together with continuing the running is to lose weight (something I yoyo with constantly) so here's hoping that the determination will work long term with that too...

Have a great run tomorrow.... :)
