Evening everyone

A little update on my story........

Did my first 10k this morning ๐Ÿ˜ฎ was thinking about it all week! Never said anything to anyone. Left home before 6am and just went out at my normal pace (look at me talking about normal pace ๐Ÿ˜‚) kept thinking how amazing it will feel to hit 10k! (yes if felt amazing if not a little better)

I started c25k alongside a change of diet at the start of February to lose weight and get healthy

My weight when I started was 17.12 stone itโ€™s now......14.11 stone โ˜บ๏ธ

For anyone who wanted an update from Alice.... sheโ€™s very proud of her Daddy โ˜บ๏ธ

What happens next for the man who has never run in his life?

Donโ€™t know.....but what I do know is...... my next run is on Monday and I canโ€™t wait!

Happy running everyone and thanks for all the wonderful support ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

Yes, that is a great achievement, that time of 59.08 for a 10k is excellent, under 1 hour, many people here on C25K 'dream' of running under 30 minutes if it's a 5k and just under an hour if it is a 10k, you have achieved that goal, your daughter Alice must be very proud of you.

Wahay. Well done ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Like you I started running to keep up with the dog and get fit and to lose the lard

Once you get to 10k your running starts to open up before you and you can just keep going

Slow and steady though still ๐Ÿ™‚๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ
