Gone and been and done it!

Yay! Am feeling terribly chuffed with myself. Just completed the C25K and after lurking around on here during the 9 weeks and now want to celebrate it here. I wanted to see if I could not just run the 30 minutes Laura coaches us to, but to go for the 5k. And I did it!

Is 36.37 mins all right for a 48 year old, smoker and wine-lover who has never run before? Please say yes, as I am bouncing around being very proud. Still a long way to go, but have a huge smile on my face.

Thanks, Laura!
