Wk9r3 what a journey.

Thank you to every one who played a part in helping me reach this point I know with out the support of this forum I would never of made it this far.

I have reached the point of being able to run for 30 minutes and from where I was at week 1 that's an astonishing achievement, I would like to say running has now become easy but it still difficult but it is rewarding,

I would like to say I have managed to run 5k but I'm still a way off that but I am now equipped with the tools and confidence to reach that goal.

The thing I do know is this journey has been life changing mentally and physically and it feels like it's just beginning.

Wow wk9r3 in the bag.

Thank you, I new 5k in 30 minutes was a tall order but I can see a constant improvement and it's motivating to have goals to reach for.
