Week 5 run 1 completed and I'm amazed, pleased and a bit proud! I ran very early as it's very hot ,here in France, at the moment! I'm well into my 60s, more than a bit overweight and before starting C25K it's at least 40 years since I ran anywhere! This is my first post and I just had to share my absolute joy and amazement!!!

Well done you!

From, one overweight 60+ runner to another (we're well represented on here) it's hot enough in the UK so you've done well to run at all in France.

Keep at it.

You deserve to be proud!

Getting started is the hardest part (although sticking with it through the heat is pretty tough too!) and you've done that excellently.

Stick with it - you'll be amazed how your running will improve and the difference it will make in many things.

Well done.
