Followed C25k programme, I wanted to achieve this before I was 50 but gave up, two years later with the now or never approach I signed up for a 5k run and started the program, my husband joined me and today we achieved the 5k together one week ahead of program. Not saying it was easy but as neither of us could run to the end of the road before a big achievement. Stick with the program you can do it to
