At 43 and a size 16/18 ..I'm on this .. hope to encourage any other people who have never tried to or even contemplated running..I will finish the programme and carry on being a runner. Good luck all ...

You are doing a fantastic job well done! It's very pleasing isn't it?! I have a very similar background to you - but I am couple of years older :( I can't believe I'm now a runner but loving the fact that I am!!

You are very nearly there, good luck with the last couple of weeks :)

And you really have only just started :) Graduating C25K is the start of your new running life - not the end. :)

Well done you...hope you get out there. It is a bit chilly here this morning:)

The longer runs ,may warrant an extra rest day, and if you need it, you take it. :) Just make sure your rest day exercise is upped a little too, to keep the stamina and strength in line with your ever strengthening running legs :)

Go you... you are doing just fine:)
