Hi all, I am very happy to have received my graduate badge, to all you tortoises out there keep at it! I started the programme in March 2013, I am not an athlete, hated PE at school, I've had to use extra rest days, had foot and hip injuries, but taking things gradually, having essential kit (getting shoes fitted) and the correct support for the girlies, I have made it. I am not fast, but I can run/jog for 30 minutes and can cover 5 to 6k. So slow and sure wins the race! Lots of support here helped me so I hope my post will give encouragement to others
All the best to my running buddies!

Thanks everyone, you encourage me even more, mostly running on my own I have nothing to compare to, I don't think I am fast by any means, building up the courage for my first park run.
