Started and finished the C25k program while I was on a six month contract on London. I have subsequently returned to Johannesburg South Africa and have continued running. I battled initially with the altitude (6000ft) and the hills (lonfon is v flat!) But I have presevered and conquer 5k runs three times a week. Running had definitely changed my life. Ran my first parkrun on Saturday and completed it 2 minutes quicker than I planned. Tough course with 3km uphill! Enjoyed it and will be back to improve time and conquer those hills. Have inspired a few friends to start the program and look forward to company on the roads soon.
