You know the feeling that you’ll never manage more than 5k well today was the day and I finally got over the threshold - now just .5 of a K but still I’ve done it and have the biggest smile on my face 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️😀

What fabulous weather to run in - thanks to all for the encouragement- 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♀️😂

Well done, it's a turning point for sure. As with C25K, build it up slowly and gradually and enjoy it 🙂

Well done you! My first 5.5K nearly killed me. I was a wreck. You can go much further though - just takes time. Go you!
