Inspiration

After a down day last week, I took some time to reflect as the word inspiration was verbalised - verbalised from friends and colleagues in my direction.  You could've knocked me over with a feather.

I started this program 5 months ago to become a happy and healthier me, in no way did I ever think I would be inspiring others.

I have 2 close friends who have been inspired by my c25k app posts to facebook and have started the running program.

A very fit work colleague told me on Wednesday how I'd inspired her to start some group fitness sessions (yes, she's qualified) with a particular focus on women over 40.  I've inspired (that word again) her and shown her that women over 40 have different needs and are able to achieve.

Then on Friday morning while running I took a pic of a hill that has me beat (for now).  About an hour later a lovely friend from Kiama took a sunrise photo of the seaside, commenting that I had inspired her to put her runners on and go for an early morning walk!!!!

4 people I've inspired!!!

On an excited note - I received my Mothers Day Fun Run, number tag today.  Getting excited for my first ever fun run, that I will be running!!!  And to make me more excited my daughter, Miss 17, has signed up to run with myself and my sss training buddy.

Just over 2 weeks to go of this amazing program and it's changing so much in me - not just the kgs coming off!!!!
