60 min run, Done!

[Never_too_old]

So I planned to run today for 60 minutes. I didn't sleep well and was up at 5am on my day off! 🙄 I need to take my meds before a run and the hubster had a sleep in and didn't get up till 7!!! (My meds are in the bedroom) had a quick coffee with him then fananied about for 15 mins. 5 min warm up, re set treadmill and off I went. 10 mins in I was feeling ok, just kept telling myself it didn't matter if I didn't do it but, wouldn't it be great to achieve this?

By 45 minutes my legs were aching and "also me" was on my case! Shouting, "yippee, 5k, let's stop" "STOP" at 50 minutes I almost gave up and was counting down in 1 minute intervals, 9 to go, 8 to go, 2 more songs etc..

At 58 minutes I really didn't think I was going to make it 🙁 I was almost on my knees 😆 but I did it! 60 minutes jogging.

Hubby gave me a round of applause and made me a frappe ❤️

In 5 months I've gone from struggling to run for a minute to struggling to run for the last minute of 60!

Its been said before and it'll be said again, the programme works, never give up!

Next goal to achieve is the elusive 10k but that could toke a while!

Happy running guys 🙂
