You can do this....if I can. I'm 51, I started C25K in June, I've never run before, and hated running as a kid. I completed C25K at the beginning of August - it is a fantastic way to get you running. Since my graduation on 5 August I've had 15 runs and covered 49 miles! today I ran 5.2km in 30 mins....so if I can, you can. Come on get out there! Get running.

Well done, that's good to hear. I am on day three and can't imagine myself running 2 minutes!
