Couch to Warwick - Week 4

Toddler steps this week- thanks for upgrading me Clairie.

Tuesday - 2.5k run/2.5k walk
Thursday - 3k run/2k walk.
Saturday - 3k run/2k walk

Tuesday's run was really crappy so we won't talk about that one. This morning was absolutely fantastic! (Looks like Confucius was right, Lulu). I kept passing the spots where I usually have to stop and thinking " that's odd, my legs are still going!", then "oooh look, they're STILL going!".

It was a lovely morning too, and there were lots of runners out which is unusual for the spot where I run. Usually there are more cyclists and walkers. I stopped for a rest and a lovely man ran past and said "good work, keep going" which gave me another burst of energy. I'm still only up to an 8min/k shuffle BTW so don't get too excited, but I'm feeling more positive than I have in months.

Thanks to all those people walking around with their bits crossed for me, it seems to be working!
