Well I just went and did it! I had a major interview today. I even used becoming a runner an example of my determination and of a way of handling stress. And I got the job! Couldn't go for a run tonight - but will fit in a celebration run tomorrow! Thank you for all the advice and good wishes.

Juicyju, I clutched my water bottle tight and used it wisely to buy thinking time.

Thank you. I put my increased confidence down to completing the c25k program when I never dreamed I could do it!

Well done!

That's awesome! I've applied for a job for a company that's already interviewed me, hopefully they want to see me a again! (Different job role this time and only didn't get other job due to my answers not being in depth!)

Wishing you lots of luck. This marks a big jump for me - but if I can run nearly 5k - I can tackle anything! So can you!

Superb. I'm looking for work too, so I'll slip in the new running 'me' into any interview.
