    Hi Claire! Really enjoy your videos. Just wanted to say around 4 years ago I couldn’t run for a bus. Now I go around 3/4 times a week and it’s part of my lifestyle. I don’t feel like I am myself if I don’t go. I like how easy it is to run as you can go whenever- any time of day and it’s relatively inexpensive. Keep going! Sorry to hear about your grandad ❤️.

    I’m going to start couch to 5k on the treadmill. It’s super hilly around here and I haven’t run in a few years - used to run a lot and I’m a lot heavier so I think treadmill will be the best bet xxx

      Treadmills working well for me no hills and keeping a consistent speed 🙌🏼

    Great progress Claire. It was hard hearing you mention grandad and knowing what was coming 😥 I've found that once you reach 5km continuously, even after a few weeks or months without running its been easy to get back tomthat standard. Just remember the first ten minutes are the worst!

    • @clairemariehoward
      @clairemariehoward  5 місяців тому +1

      Yes I absolutely am finding longer times are getting easier I think it’s more about my mindset that’s getting me through the times 🙌🏼
