After a long 2 day debate Mrs B and I have decided to do “k52hcuoc” that is couch25k in reverse running x3 30 minutes this week and in 9 weeks time end up on the settee 🛋 unfit and eating as much chocolate as possible.

Any graduates 🎓 that wish to participate are very welcome, your first 30 minutes Run must be to a KFC. 😭😭😭

If my calculations are right, that will see you graduate with a turkey dinner, mince pies and a whole tub of Celebrations.

Take it slow and steady - It's not easy running with a bargain bucket under each arm.

😂😂Actually I was toying with 5k to Couch, too - which would probably be way better than nothing. If we aimed for week 0 to coincide with the festivities and then ramp up from the beginning again as the light comes back in January - we could easily hit 10k by spring. Couldn’t we??

Kind of a slingshot effect?

And slowing down, and looking less trim and fit as you progress (well - "progress" isn't exactly the right word is it!)

Not what you're looking for?
