Tomorrow I’m running in my first 5k race ever. I’m 2 and a half years cancer free and C25k has helped me feel fitter and healthier than I ever have! I’m so excited!

Enjoy your weekend runs everyone- Mwynhewch eich rhedeg dros y penwythnos pawb xxx

It was great. Pleased to have run it all, like you and also very hot! Slower than you, just over 39 minutes but I was really chuffed with that 😊

Well done BethMay, enjoy your day running for a brilliant cause. I have walked it several times but I think I’ll run it next year just because I can. Keep healthy 💗

Sounds like a great idea Dexy. I’ve also walked it a couple of times but not since my diagnosis so there’s something special about this one 😊
