W5R3 knocked out of the park! - never thought I would come so far in 5 weeks.

Sitting here in the gym changing room crying my eyes out: 5 weeks ago I couldn't run for more than 90 seconds. Today I managed 20mins! So happy.

All my aggression at that horrible disease that took my Dad is being channeled into this. I will not be beaten. I will run 5k so that I can 'run' Race for Life this summer.

I can so do this. Feel on top of the world right now. This program is changing my life.

Go for it ... well done!

Well done you! That is just brilliant, you will run Race for Life in the summer I am sure. Thanks for your advice on the music/podcast a little while back, I now have the podcast working and I am fine with that. I have managed to download some music too- but I shall save that for after this programme. I am now on W4R2 and the 5 minutes jog is really hard but I did it and am determined to carry on. And I keep saying this but I really cannot imagine doing more. But I need to trust in the programme. Good luck x

[Mum2run Graduate in reply to no-excuse]

Thanks no-excuse. You keep running too x

Fantastic! W5R3 is a real milestone (pun intended)!

I lost my mum to cancer 21 years ago this summer. Huge best wishes and positive vibes for the Race for Life.

Well done! Of course you will do it - your Dad would be so proud!

[c4ts Graduate]

Well done on W5R3.

I got into this running lark in order to do a Race of Life and ran it in memory of my Mum who died from cancer - you will so do it and then want to keep on doing it! All the best for the rest of this programme and on into the summer for your Race for Life.
