Wow, who would have thought six weeks ago that I would have come so far.

I did the race for life in swansea today in horrendous weather in 38 minutes - yipee!!!!

So on going goals include finishing the couch to 5k app and then training for a 10 k

Thanks to the people on here who have offered support and inspiration - it's invaluable xx

Well done on your RFL! It's such a great feeling as you get to the end of Week 5 and beyond on C25K. I was constantly surprised that I was sticking with it and could do it! 😊
