Having skipped a couple of runs because I seem to have some residual ability from doing it before - I think it's mainly in the mind - I have just completed W5 run 1, so its beginning to get serious now. Thanks everyone for the encouragement a couple of weeks back, it helps to tell people what you are doing as it makes it more difficult to give up! Sue

Yes, we will be watching you and ready to give a small gentle shove if needed.!

Very well done, and keep it slow and steady... I know you hear it a lot, but it works! :)

Onward and upward :)

I just did W5R1 as well, after my summer lay off. It felt absolutely fine. I can't believe how much easier C25K is the second time. Two years running has obviously really changed my fitness levels for the better. Yippee!
