You have already achieved so much. Well done. C25k is great and I feel sure you will enjoy further success. Welcome to this forum - everyone here is so supportive and it is great to share your progress.

Fantastic progress already - I'm sure you will find this programme will work for you - just remember it's fine to repeat weeks until you feel comfortable - it's not a race. The measure is your own progress which you can look back on with pride. Might be worth keeping a record of how you are getting on - I only did for the last couple of weeks of the plan, but even then it's such a clear record of my increasing fitness (even though i never believed it would work for me) that I'm really pleased I did. Best of luck!

Wow, you've had an amazing journey already by the sounds of it! Good luck!
You're awesome! What doesn't kill us makes us stronger...

Brilliant! All the best with your c25k journey - keep us posted on your progress

Greetings from another Ned!! I hadn't run since leaving school, 46 years previously. But this programme really does work and this forum is very helpful & supportive. You've already made the most important step by starting; stick with it, trust in Saint Laura, ask lots of questions and you WILL do it. We'll expect lots of progress reports!!

thank you for your replys looking forward to week 2.
