And boy have I noticed the benefits, I dont get out of breath quite so easily when Im out and about with friends, in fact I could probably walk all day if I needed to. My feet dont complain so much when I have been out walking on them for "far too long" but most of all its the change in the way I look and feel that has been the best benefit for me. 2015 hasn't been the best year to me at times but running has really helped me feel good about myself and build up my self confidence again, its also given me the courage to show myself off abit...I've actually gone out and bought dresses to wear, which is so not me!
And why not.....a few photos to show my progress:

So what lies ahead for Flo and her running...well Ive been really thinking about this recently, I've tackled the 5k and I think now I need to tackle the 10k..I really think I need to have something to aim for, and after a meeting at work about charity events I found myself saying out loud "I could do a 10k" to then finding it being said out loud to my other work colleagues, to then becoming a reality with me finding a running buddy and a 10k to complete in, the next step is to get us booked in and kick my arse into gear*gulp* Wish me luck!!
