Hi all I've signed up this morning after some random Googling about C25K lead me here. What an amazing inspiring place.

I'm currently on week 6 & loving it. Ashamed to say have previously successfully completed the program but for some insane reason stopped running. Hope to graduate before Christmas & continue running. Can't believe I forgot how amazing running makes me feel - even if I look like a sweaty beetroot I have huge smile by the end!

Off to read some more fab posts

A warm welcome to this great community SJB. And really well done to you for getting to week 6. Wear your beetroot face with pride. My cheeks still go a lovely shade of pink/puce/purple depending on the effort!

Good luck with the rest of the programme and keep posting!

A very warm welcome to you, SJB.

I cannot imagine having the discipline to complete C25K _without_ the motivation and inspiration from this forum. So well done for getting to W6 without us!

As you already know, this is a truly inspiring community, full of helpful, motivational individuals sharing a love of running. You are in the right place: do post often, come here to have a good laugh/share our addiction/hear about the ups and downs of life. I hope that your dedication, plus the inspiration from this forum will help you build a life-long running habit.

I know - I got a poorly foot so had to stop for a bit and never got back on it. Going to listen to my body better this time.
