Air punches. I only gone and run for 25 minutes. I seriously didnโ€™t think I could do it. I just went at my usual pace and jogged along nicely.

I do believe I have a smile on my face. ๐Ÿ™‚

Thank you. Iโ€™m beginning to feel like a runner and really loving it. I donโ€™t think I have felt this good in a long time. Long may it continue. ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ

Generally pretty good, but halted due to a nasty cold this week.

I ran mid afternoon after an early shift and it was still hot then. Itโ€™s cooling off now.

Thatโ€™s just an excuse. Get running and feel the sun on your cheeks. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Iโ€™m on another shift tomorrow followed by 4 nights. Not sure how I am going to get my runs in. ๐Ÿค”

Big WELL DONE to you! You've proven you can do this, I remember this step giving me a real push. Youve earned that big smile, good luck for the rest of your journey!

Well done - feels great doesn't it! I reacted in much the same way when I did 25 minutes for the first time. I then had a weeks break so completing r1w7 received the same reaction. I think we have to keep praising ourselves - most other folk think we are crazy!

Yep, people thought I was crazy for going running in the heat. ๐Ÿ™‚
