Why not try doing your 5k at Parkrun Paul. It will get you used to running with others and it is great fun so long as you keep at your own pace.

Well done Paul... why not put a call out on here and see if there is anyone local to you who could PM you and maybe do an outside run with you... If you were near me..I'd run with you :)

You’re doing amazingly Paul. 👏👏 C25K has changed so many of our lives and we’re all happy and surprised over achievers! 😀🏃‍♀️🏃 My first race is in May too. 😀

Good luck with your run tomorrow. Will you be outside? 💪🏃

Hi Paul, I am planning on going to Man City stadium shop at some point before Christmas to get a few stocking fillers, it’s your side of town, on tram route, could meet you, fairly flat and the coach parks out back are huge and will be really quiet, let me know ;)

Wow Paul thats really impressive. Really really impressive. I now feel slightly embarrassed too. I finished towards end of October and am still consolidating. I like this stage. I may remain in this state for some time lol 😂.

Don’t feel embarrassed Wimborne. You must run what you want to run not what everyone else is doing. I stayed on the bridge playing pooh sticks for 3 months before I felt I want to go further; some left it up to a year. Enjoy what you are doing and think of how much better that is than the couch 🛋🏃‍♂️
