Hi all!

Started week 4 yesterday and can't quite believe running for five minutes is possible when one minute in week 1 killed me! This might be the best thing I've ever done.

Well done on starting the C25k Katy, I'm sure you will enjoy it. I graduated in January and it is one of the best things I have ever done. Good luck with your running and keep us updated on your progress x

Hi Katy I started week 4 R1 yesterday and I totally agree with you its amazing how quickly you progress and I'm loving it bring on R2 tomorrow. I find if I swim on my rest days I run better it just helps work my lungs as I am asthmatic too. Keep up the good work :)
