Have done the third run in the country park yesterday and it was fantastic. First outdoor run in over 30 years, since the horrific cross-country we were made to do at school. I don't think the treadmill will feature that much in the rest of my programme

I always ducked out of school PE. Hated it with a vengeance. However c25k is a different story. I'm actually enjoying this exercise malarkey 😀

Very,very well done... I am too old to have done cross country... ( Unless being forced to race around three hockey pitches in winter counts.. but I quite enjoyed that )

It is wonderful being out there isn't it... all weathers and all seasons.. I love it! Treadmills [lay their part... and for some forum friends there is no choice, but the big wide world... magic!!!

I run on the trail mostly and you stumble on new ones all the time. It's a good way of checking out your local area

It is a bit more tiring than road running but it will build you up quicker

Go steady! Have fun 🙂
