W4R1 complete. I think I was delaying because I didn't really know what to expect, or that I could do it. For weeks 1 to 3, I sort of felt beforehand I could do it, but W4 was a bit different. I guess this may be a reason why the runs are simply repeated in the early weeks, as we build confidence. I know now that I will get through W4, having done the run once. Or as has been said before, believe in yourself and Laura, and just do it! Feeling much better and now imagining myself going to a parkrun wearing a C25K graduate t-shirt (eventually).

You might find later runs easier than earlier ones, which is a bit wierd, but it's designed that way. It's very good and you'll get to the end no worries. I hurt my back on week 2 so had a delay but these things happen so don't worry. Graduation day will be upon you before you know it. When you finish your last run you'll be ecstatic

Just have that belief in C25k and in yourself and you will do it.

Good luck. Keep running, keep posting.
