Little big things
March : little steps, big progress
β Local running group joined
β Complete couch to 5K
β First ever ParkRun
Accepting that starting again from the very beginning is sometimes the tougher, braver and ultimately healthier thing to doβ¦
β BIG FUCKING TICK
This time last year I was doing Hyrox in Glasgow (and I do miss that type-2 fun) but honestlyβ¦ Iβm in a much better place mentally β and probably physically β than Iβve been in for a long time.
Turns out taking a step RIGHT back this year, focusing on the absolute basics (a simple daily walk) and accepting that that was enough⦠was exactly the reset I needed.
Somewhere along the way that switch Iβve been fumbling for since moving here has finally flicked back on and I am very excited about more future Park Runβs and pot-run breakfasts! Shout out to Attfieldβs Farm Shop for this beaut of a breakfast!
Feeling very grateful for the people whoβve helped me get here β through trial, error, blood, sweat, tears and probably a fair bit of patience while I figured out how to show up for myself again π Anywayβ¦ onwards we go!
Not quite Jo 2.0.
More like Jo 41.8
(two months shy of 42 and learning how to run again)
