Right now I am feeling pretty happy with myself!

I started my training today and have just been for my first run!  
To ensure that I am doing things properly, and to get me motivated, I have joined a local running group. 

I am not a runner. 
In fact I think the last time I ran was when I was at school doing PE and we didn't have a choice in the matter. 

As an adult I have never really run before and was adamant that I wouldn't be able to do it. 

But I was wrong! I could do it .... I DID do it. 

And I didn't die!


As part of the beginners group we were running for 3 minutes and then walking for another 3 minutes. We repeated this cycle 7 times, and I managed to run 5 out of 7 of them!!

I am really proud of that and am really looking forward to going to my next session on Friday. 
It's easy to see how people find running addictive.

My legs are a little sore, and it is quite possible that I wont be able to walk in the morning .... but I got out there and I did it. 

I'm so grateful to everyone for the kind words and support that you have been showing me. It's going to be a really tough year, but I am determined that I will succeed.

I'll keep you posted with my progress. 

Love Missy xx
