Thank you ! I should have said that I started the c25k programme June 2014, and am amazed to be able to run in a 10k event now, couldn't run for a Bus this time last year 😅

Thank you folks ! I don't know if it exists already but we should consider entering as a c25k team for next years event !

Any thoughts ??

There were quite a few of us met up at the London Winter Run this year. We met before and after. I think some had entered as a team, although I'm not 100% sure about that . It was a brilliant day, and lovely to chat to other C25kers so I guess if someone just puts the shout out re various races, if there's a team entry there will be some takers. I would love to do this one as a team next year! x :-)

Well done Gary! I saw one of the medals yesterday...what a beaut!! You must feel very proud of yourself and obviously buzzing, with your encouragement of a C25k posse...

Little steps, I start week 9 today & who knows where the end will lead :)

Thank you !

The end of week 9 is a fabulous feeling, have you done any of the park runs?

When I completed W9R3, I was told it wasn't the end, but the beginning

And it's very true 😆

Well done! I'm entered to do my first 10km in September & I'll be over the moon if I manage a time anywhere near that!

I'm doing my local one which has about 600 entrants and goes through some lovely countyside. The I"ve entered a girls only 1 in Hyde Park in October - much bigger & completely different. This time a year ago if someone had told me that I would be doing this I would have told them to lay off the wine ☺

That's a great time! I'm a Londoner so am up for any team shenanigans (although a way away from 10k at the moment and much slower than you)!
