I started the C25K on the 2nd March and finally completed my 9 week plan yesterday morning!! I got to the 30 mins and realised that I had only done 4.2k so I thought I would go for the 5k which I completed in 34.49mins!! I only know this as I treated myself to a shiny new Garmin FR10 watch as a graduation present!!! (definitely worth the money!!)

I am so proud of my achievement as I never thought that I would ever get this far, let alone run outside in front of people!! I am recommending this podcast to all my friends as if I can do it anyone can!

My next aim is to go for the illusive 5k in 30mins and maybe even train for a 10k race next year!
