Done it! First 10 minutes were the hardest and then the last 2, can't believe I've just run for 20 minutes at 6 mph, thanks for the words of encouragement, and yes "Trust in the programme" is very true!

Yeaaaay!! You did it! Well done! I can only imagine running for 5 mins at the mo so your apprehension at such a big leap seeming impossible but then doing it, is encouraging :-)

Keep going!! Yours is such a great journey to be taking and thanks for making this community part of it.
