Well I certainly wouldn’t have believed it when I started, or for that matter for most of the first month of C25k, that at 54 I would be a regular at Saturday parkrun and registering for a half marathon next March! My PB over 5k is now 27.26min and I’ve lost over a stone! Keep going and you can achieve it too!
8 months on ......: Well I certainly wouldn’t... - Couch to 5K
8 months on ......
Very well done... positivity! We love it
Woo hoo this is fabulous, well done !!
Great encouragement thanks - just what I need to hear.
I am about to finish week 7, very slow but loving running and am beginning to think ahead to what to aim for post C25K. Great to hear a "several months on"post from someone of a similar age, (well ok, I'm older - sigh!!) 😄
Wonderful! What a fantastic journey you’ve been on. Good luck with the half marathon training; I’ve just signed up for my first one too 😬
Which one you going for Gabby08 ?
It’s called the Brass Monkey and it’s in York in January. I really need to get training! Which one have you signed up for?
Gatwick Gabby08 but wish I was doing the York one as I’m originally from Hull and spent many a great day out in and around York so would have been lovely! Hope training goes well and thanks for your encouragement 😊
Wow, that is fantastic. Good luck for the half marathon 😀
Brilliant - which HM are you doing? The journey is special isn't it? When I began I also never anticipated that at 52, I would have completed my first HM! You will love it - good luck with the training!🙂
Thank you 😊 keep the faith and give yourself lots of credit along the way - there will be good runs and not so good, but as long as you keep going there’s no such thing as a bad run 👍 oh and of course well done for getting this far too!! 👏
Good for you well done 🙂. The weight thing is amazing isn’t it. my substantial butt literally disappeared 😃
Your HM training will keep you busy over the winter 💪👍🏃♂️🙂
Good luck with it
Nibble away at the distance 🙂
