Today I did run 1of week 7.Im really delighted and at the end of week 6 run 3 I actually allowed myself a leap in the air and a quiet YES (I still feel self conscious when running). I nearly cried when Laura said "you are now a runner". My first run in the rain today, at least it kept me cooler although it made seeing through my glasses tricky. This programme really seems to work as I have never been able to run before;I just think its amazing.

Congratulations! You are a runner! :-) I remember getting so emotional as I progressed. C25K is truly life changing! :-) Gayle

Well done. I've just finished week 7 and it's amazing to think that I can run for 25 minutes. Good luck with the rest of the programme!

Well done! A big milestone, that one! :)

I wear a hat with a brim to keep the rain off my glasses. Doesn't completely work (and it can be annoying) but it's good to see where you're going!
